title and question asked opposite yes/no questions, so clarifying
- Welcome!
We certainly aim to be. From the platform side, serving the community (not stockholders) is one of our primary goals, really our reason to exist. We expect everybody to be civil and of course don't tolerate things like personal attacks and harassment. Each community is a little different and some are stronger and more active than others, but all have people who are here because they want to help build communities here, so I hope you'll give us a try. Our [Software Development](https://software.codidact.com/) community is not nearly as large as SO but has steady activity. Because it's not huge like SO, it can have broader scope; all aspects of software development are in scope there, so you don't have to guess which of twenty related communities your question belongs on.- Sometimes questions can't be answered as asked, and questions can be closed here pending edits to address those issues. What I've seen on the communities here is that people actively try to help if a question doesn't quite fit. Threaded comments make the back-and-forth that comes from trying to clarify questions easier to manage, too.
- No community is perfect because communities are made of people and people are not perfect. I think ours do pretty well, though of course I'm biased. I encourage you to explore them.
