In theory yes, although the moderation is pretty lacking. So people use it as tech support, ideological rants, yes/no questions, support with actually using Lemmy, DAE, and all other manner of stuff that theoretically doesn’t fit on here, and which is often low effort and doesn’t prompt much discussion.
Just to add, on Reddit it was segregated away from askreddit pretty early on in the site’s life because it was realized that there’s not much useful discussion that can come off a question structured in that way. Better to ask something like “do you do X? Why or why not”. DAE is mostly just people seeking approval.

At least we don’t get the hourly “What’s the sexest sex you’ve ever sexed” question from someone who’s horny on the internet for their first time.
Good, let’s keep it that way. Lack of freedom of speech is what has made that 3rd Reich of Reddit impossible to use.
