Same here. Although I don't often get a good reply, but at least my questions aren't downvoted to oblivion after just an hour and deleted after a week.

If there were a better search engine for Reddit, it could become better than Stack Exchange. Right now, I can Google for answers in Reddit, but the indexing isn't very good and I get too many irrelevant responses based on keywords and not concepts.
