A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MODERATORS
Don't forget that 98% of 14 year olds will not pipe up and go "Yeeeaahh! I'm just 14 in here!" This data has always been impossible to gather, as you simply cannot gather it objectively, it's currently impossible at the technical level.
Throughout my teen years, whenever I had to submit real info for something, my name was Bob Barker and I just made up everything else on the spot. The computer had no way to verify if I am being honest, and I knew that.
And on that note, I am a snotty-nosed 14 year old.
I assumed they're all on the gaming and meme communities. Oh, and porn.
Just wondering why this seems nicer than r/ and thought maybe it was less young people.
We know you're not 14 because ..
My guess is that Lemmy is a new platform. The fediverse is also new to most people (myself included) and that leads to people genuinely replying to posts instead of trolling around.
