How can we make Codidact more friendly for askers?
Most of the sites are struggling to get questions and while it seems to me at least that more effort has been put into optimizing for the answerers than for the askers.

To put it another way, **there are lots and lots of sites on the internet where one could get their question answered, why should they ask it here?**

Recently for me, it has not so much been that I don't have questions but more that the cost of writing questions is has not been worth the benefit.

What can we do to encourage people to ask questions here?
