The validation system is extremely off-putting. I have been working on some specialized tools for years so I could have answered some very precise questions with good confidence. However, the system was always there to detrust me and I was not going to spend hours to go through their hoops for an answer that takes me 10 min to redact. So instead I’ll post it on Reddit or a gist hopping people will be able to discover it.
Where would you post them?
stack overflow
DUPLICATED, CLOSED, etc.
Joke aside, for an open question I’d prefer posting on Reddit/Lemmy/forums to have an open answer.
SO is too strict on its policy.
That’s clearly not the type of “programming question” mentioned in OP tho
Oh god
There there. I’m not quite god himself yet although I have over 1000 points on stack overflow.

Off-putting it is. Still an important tool for finding actual answers I need for my work.
Useful for me too. But I wish it was more opened for people who would just want to answer a couple of times a year, community can sort it out.
