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.
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.
