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.

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.

Place your hand palm down on a flat surface (like a table).
Put your middle finger under your palm, leaving your other fingers outstretched. (Kind of like throwing the heavy metal horns, but with only the middle finger tucked in)
You can probably lift your index finger or pinkie finger up alone no problem. Lifting your ring finger alone will probably be hard, if not impossible, as long as you keep your middle finger tucked under your palm.
Curling either my pinkie or my middle finger also causes my ring finger to curl. Curling my ring finger doesn't affect my pinkie or middle finger, though.
I’m gonna say no, it doesn’t count. Mainly cos I can move one with just a twitch from the other and I’m not special at all.
To learn to play guitar I had to get my fingers to move more independently. Difficult at first but you can do it. I assume it is similar for other stringed instruments.
I can’t pin my pinky down with my thumb to make a 3. It’s impossible for me to straighten my other fingers
Sibling! To make three I use the ok symbol.
The only way! I always wondered what’s different about my hand/wrist
This happens with my left hand but I can make a 'normal' three with my right hand.
I have no issues moving any single finger independently. I just tested it. Maybe because I've played guitar, maybe because I'm a rock climber, or maybe I'm just a freak of nature. Or... maybe this is one of those Facebook claims that only 2% of people can do it, when really it's just a normal thing that everyone can do.
