No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I keep bumping into Raindrop all the time, but nobody explained what it is. As if everyone already knows what it is. I didn’t, until I finally took the time to open that site. In a new tab, obviously 😀
Anyway, seems like a pretty neat idea. So, how does that better than using normal bookmarks of your browser?
The main advantage is, if you keep a lot of "bookmarks" (which I don't, but I like to be prepared) they are searchable not just by name, but also by tag.
This means when you find that good stack overflow page about resolving cuda issues on a VM you can tag it as "linux" "python" "cuda" "VM" in addition to giving it a name. Then you can search for any of those and find it.
The free version is pretty good and it lets you do one level of folders and as many bookmarks as you want. (Oh yeah. It supports folders so I have one for example that is called Unwatched YouTube, you might guess what I use it for). The paid version is probably better because it includes unlimited folder nesting AND it saves a snapshot of whatever webpage you're bookmarking so you never lose anything. I would think this would be indespensible if you habitually save things like reddit or Lemmy threads so it doesn't get deleted from under you.
I don't use raindrop.io as much as I would like, but I would assume it's a far cry better than a browser with 200 tabs open.
