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.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Reddit became too corporate, blocked 3rd-party apps, restricted views that didn't align with their advertisers, sold user content to AI farms, etc. That's why I'm here. There will always be a place like Lemmy, where AI-generated content will be filtered through real, intelligent, moral, empathetic people. So we'll continue to block and analyze and filter as much of the churn as we can...
As much as I appreciate the optimism, that's not realistic seeing how fast technology is going.
If you amped up indistinguishable-from-real bot activity by 1000 or a million times, there would be no effective filter. That's what I know is coming, to every corner of the internet.
Other options such as paywalling, invite-only, and other such barriers only serve to fragment and minimize the good that the internet can do for humanity.
