No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Perhaps, or perhaps it will be like Lemmy/kbin where people are reinvigorated to create simply for the pleasure of creating, whereas they only preciously scrolled anonymously. You may not remember, but there was a time where YouTube was new, you were not making any money from your videos and yet people made all sorts of things. There was also Newgrounds and eBaum's World and I'm sure a few others I forgot.
Sure, if they gained traction, they'd make a business out of it, but there was no algorithm to worry about or analytics to monitor. The current corporate options are far from the only possible solution and it will fade in time just like everything else has.
The Linux Experiment did a video on this: https://tilvids.com/w/99oSPPBJb3tkdVLc3fsSe5
Well, i remember those times. I'd miss a few people who earn money and make entertaining stuff, like ElectroBOOM or Mark Rober doing squirrel mazes or annoy porch pirtates, Maker's Muse 3d-printing puzzles for wild parrots... People shooting documentaries. We'd lose some of those people, because they'd need to work a real job. Maybe they'd still make a video every now and then.... And for some videos you need funding. I think Mark Rober can probably still 'waste' 10000$ for a video because he can promote himself and the stuff he sells, but nobody else can. Same for things like people buying things and test and compare them independently. (Like computer components. PC magazines used to do stuff like that, but they also still struggle with earning money.)
On the flip side... We'd get rid of all the content farms at once. All those life hacks that don't work. All the fake stuff that's only there because the video takes 5min to make and some stupid(?) people watch it. It would be gone instantly. And all the reaction streamer people, too.
I really love things people create of their own accord. Like old youtube videos. Or art like music, published under a creative commons license. Cory Doctorow publishing novels you can download them for free. The funny Sysadmin stories from usenet times. All the free software out there. I really (figuratively) have no clue why people use something like windows instead of linux. it's really awesome. I prefer the free software video editors like Kdenlive. I wouldn't want to use some proprietary one.
There is great stuff out there, that isn't based on the business model of selling something now. Or tracking people and advertising stuff to them. I've lost track of what i was trying to say. The world would be kind of a different place. I don't know if better or worse would be correct categories. But certainly different.
