No Stupid Questions
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.

That has nothing to do with it being a "instance controlled by the developers". .world simply won't be auto-linked since it's a too common of a word (my guess anyway).
usually you can type in any valid url and it will link them.
google.com test.gov whateever.ch
but it will never work with ".world"
anything.world
.world is a newer gTLD whereas .ml is a more well known country code TLD. whatever auto linking code the lemmy UI uses likely just isn't up to date with all these comparatively recent TLDs
Could also be the case, but there is like 1600 TLDs these days, ranging from foo.accountants to bar.walmart (just testing if they autolink, I don't think they will. edit: they didn't).
Maybe at somepoint it makes sense to exclude some of the more common terms to avoid accidental linking by people that don't use spaces after punctuation (I hate them). But could also just be an up-to-date issue, I'm just speculating.
I'm just using the default web interface and I don't think the link generation is from my browser. I think it's on the side of lemmy, but I could be wrong. Using any mobile app could easily overwrite that behaviour though.
Yep, someone else also suggested that. Might be that or see my reply to that for futher thoughts.
