Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion
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.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I'm not going to post in a ghost town
“I dont want to do anything. I want everyone else to entertain me”
Where do you think active communities started in the first place?
Be the change you want to see. Post the content you want to see. Start the community you want, and grow it.
You're saying that like it's a bad thing
Weird...that sounds like a good thing to me
You know it's people who think like you that CAUSE it to be a ghost town, right?
Then don't? Sounds like you just want free content. That's really not "what we do" here
That's exactly what they just said; people don't post because there are no posts. Post on a community you want to keep alive and that'll encourage other people to post. Don't post and nobody else will either.
I've seen chains of post of the same person for months without any answers, it's just sad dude.
