Tl;Dr What is the current SU stand about troubleshooting questions?

<hr>


I'm a long time computer user used to do my best to solve "simple" problems, long time lurker to multiple forums including SU. I used to think that troubleshooting questions were on topic here and pointed some people to come making emphasis on checking SU's how to ask / on topic docs. I have the intention to be more specific on issues where the symtoms includes web applications and browsers like 

- [Stop Gmail pop-up ad "Google recommends using Chrome"](https://apple.stackexchange.com/q/454179/274411)

Regarding the above specic case, if the OP doesn't improve their question I'm considering the possibility of posting a self answered question, but I'm still not have very clear the SU stand about troubleshooting in cases were the symptoms involves Gmail + Safari + MacOs + Utilities, or more general the symptoms involves a web app + web browser + operative system + utilities.
