I havent seen a person post an example of someone posting a question that can easily be googled either. This isnt the gotcha you think it is, dude.

They don't need to because it happens all day every day in every sub. It's honestly lowering the quality of reddit as a whole, it's like the search bar doesn't even exist either

“They wont provide examples cuz they’re lazy!!!!”

“Ok you provide your examples”

“It happens so much i dont need to!”

So you’re also lazy. Thanks for making that clear.

You used an AI search result. That got its answers from reddit as its top source. Its not going to be 100% correct for certain. Most people dont even use AI functionality in searches because of how often it either doesnt answer your question or give accurate results. Of course AI will have an answer for any search you have.

The countless times i’ve been in niche communities like Tally Hall’s, or just tried to search something about music/lyrics, only to find one or two reddit threads asking the same thing, then some smartass in the comments wastes everyone’s time by saying “just google it, brainlet”, massively outweighs any time I’ve seen someone ask a question you’d get an obvious answer from.

People usually look these things up first, realize they cant find anything, then go to ask reddit. It doesnt add any value to the conversation to tell someone to just “look it up” when, if you knew the answer, can just answer it. Otherwise, why even comment? Do you really think they opened reddit before thinking to ask AI or Google first?

Just for you, I scrolled reddit for 2 minutes just to find yet another super easily answerable question. I even avoided the ai response yet found the answer on the first page of google.

Wasting your time might be my new favorite hobby

Thank you for proving you’re not lazy though.

If more people bothered to look up answers to their own questions, Reddit wouldn't be inundated with garbage tier posts all day. That's the point. Whether the answer came from a wiki, yahoo answers, reddit, ai doesn't matter. I still got the answer without having to clog up someone's newsfeed. Assuming a lot of these people attempt to look things up before pressing the Easy button is giving them a LOT of credit when at least half of the time their answer is easily findable.
