So I take it that you interpret “no stupid questions” to mean “don’t post stupid questions.” The way I interpret it is “there’s no such thing as a stupid question.”
The sidebar says “No such thing. Ask away!” So I think the idea is that people should feel free to ask any question assuming they really want an answer. However, joke or troll questions (and I don’t think this is either one), are allowed on Fridays.
The “what would you do” type of questions where everyone shares their subjective opinions is exactly the type of question asklemmy is for. Nostupidquestions is for questions seeking objective answers.
I think you asked this in the wrong community, this is better suited for c/asklemmy. This community is for earnest questions.

No, I interpret this community as a safe place to get answers for questions you’d be scared to ask because you think you’d get judged.
I see asklemmy as the place to ask fun trivia and make fun conversations.
I’m afraid people who have awkward questions might get scared away from the community if questions-for-fun like these were common.
This felt too stupid for [email protected] but you are probably right about that

Thanks :)
I’m in the opposite boat, this feels too opinionated, and not serious enough for c/nostupidquestions
