I stopped asking questions there because I usually spend about twenty to thirty minutes writing them to make sure they’re clear and not duplicates. I take time to explain why they aren’t duplicates of similar questions. The I get downvoted and I get my question closed. Then the site tells me to do things and I do them but no one else knows what I’m talking about and I get mocked for not knowing how the site works. That community is toxic as fuck. Genuinely, users spend more effort and energy looking for reasons to not answer something than they do trying to make questions answerable. Heaven forbid anyone give a reason for any of this. Just gotta get their daily stats to rank up.

Seriously, the one thing SO could’ve had going for it in the wake of AI is the human aspect, but they haven’t fixed their community problems in years.
