I’ve always been a “lurker” on all platforms and communities because when I do have a question or would like to contribute my first thought has become:
Actually, let me google it first
In which case I’ll usually have some answer. Usually it isn’t a complete answer but enough for me to not want to share my question anymore.
Not “google it”, but when people who seem to be trolls keep asking nonsense questions that make it clear they haven’t read past the subreddit name, I have no problem with them just being linked to the FAQ (I hate when people don’t link it: it’s not people’s fault reddit, especially official app, make finding such impossible) or told to search their question and read the other 1000 times that question has been asked on said subreddit (and ideally link to one of them that people have actual answers to but not necessary imo).
