New here
4mon 19d ago by discuss.online/u/Cookie1 in AskUSA@discuss.onlinehello I’m new here, I’m exploring Lemmy for a class project on online communities. Is this a good place to ask beginner questions?
Welcome! This is a good community for non-political US questions, and for more general questions there's asklemmy@lemmy.world, and maybe others depending on the nature of your questions
In addition to what's been said so far, check out newcomers@piefed.zip (the most recent post was today) or newtolemmy@lemmy.ca (this used to be the most established community for that purpose, but unfortunately not well-known despite that fact, and with the most recent post being two months ago it seems a little dead lately, though you could try it if you don't get many responses to the former one?).
But that's more for like new to the Threadiverse style of questions. If you instead have questions about a particular app that you use, you'll want to go to the specific app community - e.g. voyagerapp@lemmy.world. And if you have questions regarding the USA, like "how often do Americans take baths, especially in winter time?", then yeah this is the absolute best place for that!:-)
Sure why not. Ask away.
also see fediverse@lemmy.world and fediverse@piefed.social for good general resources to learn about the fediverse!
Depends...
