@cwicseolfor haha I wholeheartedly agree. I have given up on searching for answers to technical things on the web, when I can just ask the question here and get brilliant advice and solutions in under 2 minutes.
There are so many incredibly smart and generous people on here, willing to help 
️
Now I'm curious, but I couldn't find it by quickly looking up in your profile.
@skinnylatte it's the best!
@skinnylatte This is so damn true! Hahah.
Tech, cooking, sewing, legal stuff, writing, pretty much anything. We have a bottomless wealth of human knowledge here - which comes with a sense of responsibility. Something AI doesn't have.
And, unlike ChatGPT, their replies are correct. And come with a lot of accurate citations.
@RachelThornSub @skinnylatte Honestly, it depends. One of the reasons why I love BSD and #Gentoo is that the BSD and Gentoo communities are *very* inviting and there are (almost) no questions considered "too dumb".
I think this XKCD sums it up perfectly -

@skinnylatte
And that is soooo fabulous!!
@jaBote @skinnylatte most of my toots are followers only. I was recommended draw.io, excalidraw.com and PowerPoint
@skinnylatte @qgustavor
That sometimes happened to me, too.
It often helps to try again by boosting my own post. Don't be ashamed to boost yourself!
(I looked for that post on your profile to boost it, but couldn't find it.)
@RachelThornSub@famichiki.jp @skinnylatte@hachyderm.io out of curiosity, what forums do you mean? the ones i used/use were quite civil (usually)
@laguiri @jaBote @skinnylatte ooh, excalidraw is good, i was reccomended it by someone on vrchat lol
@skinnylatte looks like a collective intelligence 
@skinnylatte I just did this for a very specific question in a lounge slack channel at work and now I have answers, new questions answered and a couple of people I get to know more. Asking actual people is the best thing ever
@cwicseolfor @skinnylatte
Three for three here, cwicseolfor.
The Fediverse hive mind is astounding!

Sadly, it hasn't worked for me 
I would still love to get a recommendation for 3D modeling software that would let me complete my walkthrough model of the airship from my books.
@AbramKedge you just don't have the right friends 
jokes aside, it is a bit hit and miss. I've had open questions that were answered after TWO YEARS and others that were answered within minutes.
