I’ve always been a “lurker” on all platforms and communities because when I do have a question or would like to contribute my first thought has become:
Actually, let me google it first
In which case I’ll usually have some answer. Usually it isn’t a complete answer but enough for me to not want to share my question anymore.
Dumb questions that could be easily answered with a search engine or AI are not my idea of ideal discussion and I don’t see a point to retaining it. “Noob questions” are fine, using a discussion board as a first resource for a basic question is not.
