| Feb 6, 2020 at 21:55 | comment | added | Karu | "Being clogged up with noise" isn't an issue that exists so long as the review queues and searches continue to exist. If someone asks a question with an easy answer, so much the better - the next person to come along will hopefully find it on Google. | |
| Feb 6, 2020 at 0:51 | comment | added | Ramhound | @Hashim - I could have used other examples. However, I don't see how the rest of my answer doesn't have merit. A question was asked and answered by the author, a user which we must presume has good intentions, which means they wanted to share an answer to a legitimate question they had. I mean, there are questions that exist, which certainly should get more intention, despite it being a widespread problem. | |
| Feb 6, 2020 at 0:16 | comment | added | Hashim Aziz | You are comparing apples and oranges - a brand new bug introduced by the latest bleeding edge build of an operating system that made the news, versus a PEBKAC issue relating to how to use an interface that has existed in that form since the release of Windows 7. I believe some level of quality control and/or re-education of the site's users to favour upvoting questions above a certain threshold of technical experience (and let's not pretend that's a subjective thing) is necessary to avoid this site becoming clogged up with noise. | |
