Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

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.

None. Ignorance is better for my mental health right now.
Like yeah, I obviously know that people are horrible and that the world is burning up, but I'd rather just not have to read about children being murdered and put into dumpsters, buildings being bombed, wars being waged, forests burning, coral reefs dying, etc. It adds nothing of value to my daily life.
Same. Can’t change something out of my control 1000 miles away, let alone 10.
I blocked out the news in 2016, anything really significant filters through to me anyway so I'm not missing anything I really need.
Right? Corona was pretty hard to miss for example, but there's been so many significant, really atrocious things that have happened since 2016 and a bunch of them get forgotten so quickly after.
