    Because the right sub for their question doesn’t have many people, whereas asklemmy will be read by a wider audience

        Yeah I like it. It reminds me of how Ask Reddit used to be.

        Ever since Ask Reddit removed the body section of posts, just leaving people with the title section to work with, I feel like it’s mostly been generic dull questions where everyone says basically the same thing and doesn’t elaborate.

        Prime examples:

        Q: Men what is something we can all agree on?

        A: We’ve all fantasized about being the hero in some daydream scenario.

        and

        Q: What is the most basic thing you are terrible at?

        A: Holding a conversation.

        I’d rather hear about someone’s struggles to install Arch Linux

      I suspect community discoverability is also an issue, maybe even more than it not getting a response there.
