If you used Yahoo Answers! in the past and it came back, would you use it again?

@Zaphod42 Twitter headline, "Elon Musk revives Yahoo Answers! to its former glory" lol. Guarantee it'd be trolls everywhere, unless it's heavily moderated.

@SW-User What you said makes sense to me 🙂

I use this site here as a replacement for Yahoo Answers! and so far it's worked well for me.

Sorry to hear about your friends :(

@twiigss I'm glad it's working out for you. :)
As for my friends, thank you. I got to know some of them really well and it was really hard to just leave all that behind when Yahoo announced the shut down. Yes, they offered to let you keep your own questions and answers, but there was nothing offered for friends that were gone.

@MrBrownstone Oh ok.

@twiigss @twiigss yes,made the same kind of do him post on there lol

@JohnOinger Oh. Yea I wasn't aware of that. It's all good.

@REMsleep I would still get serious answers, but it came down to, how long the question was. My problem is that I would have to explain the setup of what was going on, before I could explain the actual problem. And sometimes, my question would end up being 3 or 4 paragraphs long, and I wouldn't even get an answer.

@twiigss Yes, the quality of people answering the questions went way down. 50% of questions were troll posts
People didn't want to read anymore.

@REMsleep Yep. So every now and then I'd see stuff on posts TLDR. So at the start of my posts I would write, TLDR? Too bad.

My whole thing was, if you can't be bothered to read a post just a few paragraphs long, like come on, it can't be that hard. Now I have seen some posts here where its like you have to scroll down for a good 10 seconds just to see all the words, a lot of those kinds of posts is just nonsense, so I won't read those. And they don't have punctuation. It's just a string of words talking about nothing.

But I think a lot of the decent people left the site after some time. I distinctly remember a profile by the name of Bob who was a top answerer for the Computers category, but think he only ever answered one of my questions. Abrexo (I don't remember the name exactly) was also on there who I think answered a couple of my questions, and then they just stopped using the site I'm guessing.

@SW-User I do use Quora and Reddit already. So this isn't the only place I go to, but it is my main spot as I use it for my YA! replacement. But I'm not going to pay money for something when I can get it from somewhere else for free. And if free goes away, I'll stop using it.

Kinda like the online news MarketPlace. They want you to pay a subscription to read articles, I simply back out and get the news elsewhere. I'm not paying to read a news article, when 10 or 20 other places have it available without having to pay them money.

@twiigss It is free also, just ads asking you to upgrade like this place has VIP
