Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
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.

There are definitely growing pains here, it's the same problem Reddit has with people posting the same thing in multiple different communities, I don't want to block them, because they're communities that I'm interested in, it's just the same repeated stuff, which gets annoying.
I blocked the main politics subs because it was nothing but Trump posts (I'm American, so it's been like 8 years of hearing about this asshole on a nearly daily basis). The new annoyance is the constant posts in multiple communities about the Israel/Palestine conflict. I get that it's a hot issue, and a lot of people care about it, but I really don't and I'd rather not see stuff about it every freaking day.
It would be great if there was some sort of keyword filter for the c/All or even your subbed communities where you can filter out keywords so it's not an endless stream of the same shit. Another example is posts about the Yuzu Nintendo Switch emulator getting the ax, it's like "I know this happened, I don't need to see posts about it in 5 different communities".
