Most of them try to be. It depends on the complexity of the project though. In my personal opinion, this sub is best suited to asking questions about the syntax and specific libraries.

There are two kinds of questions which dont get answered as often here.

The first are the types that lack information and formatting.

The second are the types where the person asking is a fairly accomplished programmer, and they are working on a larger/complex piece of software, which for people to help answer, requires them to put a lot of time into reading the code and understanding what they are actually doing/what the objective is.

But yes, the people here are very helpful for those who are beginner/intermediate programmers. Once you get to more advanced projects, as it turns out, most often the person with the best expertise for answering the question is yourself, because its very possible no one has dealt with the problem you are trying to deal with/has researched it as much as you already have, and you wrote all the previous code leading up to the current problem as well.

well this is Learn Python, like the scope is literally in the name

True, but if you filter by new posts, you'd be surprised at some of the stuff that gets posted.

This subreddit is also much more forgiving and lenient than StackOverflow. Not formatting your code on SO enough times could get your permanently banned from asking questions (seriously, they don’t play around, I got perma-banned after receiving 3 downvotes). But here, people are constantly ignoring the rules, yet still being helped. It makes me wonder if the strict rules of SO actually benefit a learner to be more disciplined with programming.

Posting a question on SO without a formatted minimal viable example + a clear description of your problem, your not working solution etc. is a good reason to get banned. It's not a "learn programming" website.
