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.

Um, to do something?
Because I'm paying them fucking rent money and shit for a spot? Duh!
To be slightly more polite, as this seems like one of your first places... You absolutely want to keep a neutral third party involved.
In my building, some of us are paying half or a third what new tenants do, the manager has a clear financial incentive to remove as many old timers as possible (and has tried her best.) If the norm was that building managers patrol for noise etc, you could much more easily get into a "he said/she said" with someone who has the means and motivation to remove you. Having the norm be police means that the complaint has to be somewhat valid, not just "enough that the building manager can increase their income stream."
While the details depend on the jurisdiction, in most of the saner places landlords can't evict over something like noise. Your anger is misplaced.
Have you tried being an adult and camly talking to your neighbour? Let them know what you hear, how its impacting you and some respectful suggestions on how things can be made better.
Also what kind of noise are we talking about and when? Life makes noise, and you chose to live in an appt with thin walls. Some noise is to be expected.
Building manager isn't your parents. If you have a problem with the building, that's their issue, if you have a problem with your neighbour, you're expected to deal with it like any other adult; talk to the person, if that doesn't work, police.
