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.

Was wondering if sub-lemmys were a thing. In other words: are there ways to make a community where you can draw direct, meaningful relations between existing communities?

Personally, I don't understand the question. I'm assuming you're starting a parallel to subreddits, but I don't see how they had direct, meaningful relations between them?

Hopefully the new title makes more sense, but basically I want to create hierarchical communities so that they all share a common set of rules and policies but follow more rigid organizational structure - nodes display a grid of further nodes or allow search within the whole subtree. Leafs function essentially like communities do now and display user posts for whatever the structure is.

Thought this might be a more efficient structuring of the information we'd all like to share with each other and enjoy consuming : )

You might be overthinking it a bit.

thats the fun part!

Example:

ArtificialIntelligenceEra, lists it's child nodes:

  • Chat Models --chatgpt --binggpt --google's --etc
  • Art Models -- Stable Diffusion -- Dalle -- etc
  • Utility Models
  • [LEAFS] (mostly misc, unknown AI things that dont fit anything in existence)

Sound a bit like a instance, but then in the form of a community. Sounds interesting.

It doesn't yet exist, but if you want it to be made someday, you can create a feature request on the github. Though I doubt they will work on it anytime soon, as they're currently pretty overloaded with issues.

[–] stevedidWHAT@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this is a tad unrelated, but I figure if I have the question others will too: wheres the github at? I dont plan on posting about my idea but I'd be interested to see the source code and see if I can identify and potential issues as well and do my deontology for the year haha.

I imagine someone will figure out a way to get an aggregated feed of associated communities

[–] RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There is no such thing as a "sub-lemmy," do you mean a community that directly federates with similar communities, such that subscribing to one automatically puts you into a feed of all related communities?

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

OP means hierarchical communities with sub-communities with sub-sub-communities, like how comments work.

For example you could have a community for your country which would have sub-communities for each state or province which would sub-communities for each city which could have sub-communities for each neighborhood or subdivision.

I'm not sure what the benefit would be though.

On lemmy, it's just a c/ or community. Not a sublemmy.

But, not really, no

sublemmy is cute, trips off the tongue, and can be shortened to sub. community is more awkward to say, and shortens to comm or commie. c/ (cee-slash?) is just awful. until someone suggests something better (lemmons? lemmunities?) i'm going to keep using sublemmy


edit 2023-07-17. i have settled on lemmysphere. it is a pun, and i like it
