I personally use Repl.it's talk part of their website to ask questions. The community is very helpful. You will get an answer pretty quickly, like in an hour, or in a few minutes. There is also no downvoting, and no-one really flags questions there. Flagging is mostly for shared projects when they are a low effort project, or something else. One thing to note is that the community now days only listen to the people with a lot of cycles, which is not a good thing. Some people even left the website because of that, but I think it isn't such a big problem, and if people are notified that cycles aren't the only thing in life, they will stop upvoting every post by a famous person. I also think DEV.to would be a good place to ask questions, but I personally do not really use it for that.
