I have found it easiest to be objective about what you want out of a question.
In other words, don't leave much room for interpretation or bike shedding.
There's no reason to not use Stack Overflow, it's still one of the biggest forums besides GitHub to get answers to questions. Why not focus on the good parts of it such as the visibility and instantaneous feedback rather than the bad parts of it? You can just ignore those.
There is no amount of reformation that would change these forums. I know many people believe that the toxicity of Stack Overflow could be changed with different incentives or algorithm changes, but that's just a silly thought. You'd have to significantly displace users to make that happen and it's easier to just build a new platform at that rate.
