I’ve always believed this community to be Lemmy’s port of Reddit’s /r/nostupidquestions.

That one has the following description:

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don’t be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help. All questions are welcome such as to how to change oil, to how to tie shoes. All questions are welcome - except clear trolls, please don’t be that guy.

So I had assumed it’s the same over here, and other comments seem to suggest it is the same.

Definitely something that should be mentioned in the sidebar though for clarity in my opinion.
