It's because you're only looking at top 1% questions/answers. Once you get to the less popular ones, that aren't viewed by tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people then you get what OP described.


OK, here are some more obscure questions straight from my browser history whose answers I also find to be very high quality:

"how to change scope of np.seterr"

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53634965/change-np-seter...

"bash set dummy exit code"

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/626723/is-there-a-s...

"Java lossy conversion from int to short"

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24173965/possible-lossy-...


Here are my three latest questions:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72366267/matching-ip-add...

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71374202/why-mov-instruc...

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70738756/proper-way-to-u...

I got what I'd call high-quality answers and I'm completely satisfied by that experience. Those questions are not top 1%.
