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.

Hard to answer without some context. Got any examples for "formal website"?
In the fediverse an "instance" is any server which is running the software in question. For example, fosstodon is an instance of Mastodon. mastodon.social is also an instance of Mastodon.
Here's one for you to consider as an example :

So just a website?
Websites of all types are hosted by servers. These servers can run any kind of software they want in order to serve web pages to users. There are countless different options for server software (see just some of the options on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_web_server_software?wprov=sfla1), and they can run on different operating systems (Windows, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, macos, ...). Two servers can serve very similar or even identical websites but run completely different software, and similarly, two servers can use the same software but serve totally different websites.
Basically it's a free-for-all.
Then l need to focus on the server aspect. But from where to get a relevant software, since you say it's a free for all ?
Here are a couple of more websites :
https://urthy.in/
https://1ness.in/
If you study these two and the one l've shared before, they all have similar goals.
I really can't explain more than I already have. If you want to learn more, Wikipedia is a great resource for this. The article I linked and other articles linked within it would be the place to start.
Okay 👍👍 Thanks 😊😊😊
