1091 users here now
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.

Hello fellow humans. What a great day to be... um... doing human things like breathe air and um... hand shakingly grabs glass of water drink water gurgling sounds
Lemmy is a federated platform where each instance is run independently but can interact with all the other ones. lemmy.org is such an instance.
Your account is on it (written sulegulmen@lemmy.org) but I (KubrickFR@lemmy.world) can see and reply to your post on the community c/asklemmy (similar to r/something on Reddit)
Hope this is useful, I'm no expert...
Maybe it’s the original? I don’t know. Doesn’t really matter. The Fediverse means all these Lemmy instances are networked, meaning if one kicks you off it you decide you don’t like it, you can join another, as opposed to Reddit, where if you say something one group doesn’t like, they can kick you off the whole platform.
The original Lemmy instance is actually Lemmy.ml
Thanks! I'm new to this so still finding my way. I appreciate the clarification.
Hello from Blåhaj :3
One of many lemmy instances. Communities and users originate from an instance.
