Advice to help you stop unwanted calls, and information about the National Do Not Call Registry.

Is it worth registering my number with the federal government (which presumably already has access to my information) to avoid spam calls? Does it work? Is there a downside?

    And also, why does this sub require a URL to post a question? Like, what if my question was so truly stupid that there was no related website?

    That might be an issue with your app/client/browser, because if you look at the rest of the sub there’s plenty of posts without a link. Unless it was changed between your post and the one before it.

      Thanks for this!

      The field was marked required, with a red asterisk. I tried posting without a URL, and it did not accept the webform. Said I needed to fill in the required field.

      I took a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/gbF3jP3

      (And if Imgur doesn’t meet Lemmy standards, I’m happy to use a different service.)
