Hmmmm, this is a tough question but I have a couple of thoughts, let's take
MSE(Math Stack Exchange) for example:https://math.stackexchange.com/. One
can observe how they answer and upvote questions within their respective
subfields so in order to use StackExchange we should have different
categories and subcategories for questions(QIT Theory,Artiq-Setup,
Artiq-Trobuleshooting,Artiq-Dev, etc. Also we should have latex support.,
another thing to look into is using reddit.
