Annual State of the Sub Post: ‘This is not the best Q&A Subreddit’

987 views

It is one of the most well known. We also aren’t what anyone would call ‘casual’ or ‘easy’.

This sub’s name is idiomatic and that is often confusing to newer visitors. I’ll make a comment below for anyone who wants to talk about rule 4 or just read about it.

For reasons that include a lot of luck, good timing and good fortune this sub is maybe the best known ‘questions’ sub. Certainly among newer users of reddit.

The problem becomes that a lot of people just know us as the popular sub for questions and end up stumbling into a whole heap of hoops to jump through to post.

**The TL:DR of this post is that r/nostupidquestions is the sub that many people are looking for when they come here. It is a place where no earnest question is against the rules (no question is stupid there). They have a thriving community and reliably produce timely answers.**

We want people to have a good experience and for a lot of people that might mean they want to visit our spiritual sister-sub. Both are good and we want to help people find the one that fits them best.

Various other comments below can discuss further.
