I think they should be removed. I thought asklemmy was the equivalent to askreddit. I think this would be more fit to !general@lemmy.world or !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
I wouldn't call it an exact equivalent - we can make it what we want. I also didn't frequent askreddit so don't have a clear example.
I'd say go ahead and make "not for questions about lemmy" a hard and fast rule, and link to some subs that might be better for that (https://lemmy.ml/c/findacommunity, https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support). These aren't open-ended questions. I'd rather this be for questions that will prompt interesting responses based on people's opinions and experiences.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !findacommunity@lemmy.ml, !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
