I have found that StackExchange does often have answers, but I
can't say I like asking questions on there, especially if the
question is almost-the-same-but-not-the-same as a question
asked earlier. In cases like this, I've been told that the
previous answer applies to my question, even when it doesn't.
In one instance, a moderator closed my question without reading
the details in order to find out that, no, it's not the same
question at all... and then refuse to reopen the question when
I point this out.
So, although I'll continue to use StackExchange as an
historical resource, I would rather not depend on it for
getting answers to new questions.
This is why I am for an own D Learn Forum, the process is
(partly) described here:
https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/76974/how-can-i-propose-a-new-site
The moderators of this should come from this forum community, if
this can not be achieved, I am against a move, too.
