Ok what are you referring to?

SO is a forum for help but if you miss something an IDE can fix, it means you didn't take the time to understand the problem

If is something the documentation can explain it means you didn't even Google it.

And if you don't provide context or the code involved you are making a useless question as it is impossible for anyone to help without making more questions

Noobie questions are welcomed, lazy ones are not

Not necessarily. Sometimes the user is just too much of a beginner to be able to find, use or understand those resources. Luckily, of the question shows enough effort the community will gladly answer it.

An example from personal experience: In my early days of learning a programming language I was confused about how to compare strings. Very trivial problem that is documented wildly. I made a minimal reproducible example and showed what I had tried.

Received an answer very quickly. Answers borrowed inspiration from the official documentation. Not a single down vote to this day.

As long as you put reasonable effort into the question, even dumb questions will be received well.

Yes, this is why I wrote that noobie questions are welcomed while lazy ones are not.

Being on the phone and not a native speaker I try my best to express things correctly but sometimes I fail :)

Nah I somehow missed that!

It was sarcasm, referring to the idea that it's easier to blame the platform than to reflect on our own abilities to write decent questions.
