I disagree, people should use the correct tools to achieve the outcome they are looking for. If you want a basic answer to a common question, you should search for material that has already answered that. Asking it in Lemmy or another social media site is wasting the time of people who could use that time to answer questions that aren’t already answered or have nuance to them that current discussion would help.
The question itself isn’t stupid, it’s a very good question, but asking other people instead of looking it up is stupid.
And that doesn’t mean it can’t be answered again. Do your part in spreading love, not hate.

I don’t think you know what ‘stupid’ means, you should look it up.
If asking questions to other people on Lemmy is stupid, answering the question is even more stupid.
You don’t know the outcome they were looking for, it’s stupid to pretend otherwise.
