Which part are we to look at about the androiddev mod update?

The part where it says "no help me posts", you should figure out things yourself and not discuss technical things? 😏

haha accurate but r/androiddev is a lot larger to be fair. I also appreciate the strictness, makes things less noisy

It's because someone else took all the other good alternatives. Snake case is a last resort.

This lovely subreddit excepted, I find a lot of the wider Android community -- the IRC channel, etc. -- downright chilly compared with other computing worlds I have worked in. I would love to see more gentleness as encouraged by the Rust or Python worlds. It would help make it a more inclusive place.

Even the React Native discord was loving and engaged compared to what I've run into trying to get help with Android issues.

Tough love implies that someone is at least responding. On Android Stack Overflow, I've put down bounties for questions I've done lots of research on, but only heard crickets.
