I agree 100%.
The other problem is that there are so many channels that you never know 
where to post your question.
And, you have to hope there is someone online at that very moment with the 
skills or interest to help you, otherwise your question scrolls away into 
eternity.
So far, I've found Reddit to be the best forum for Elm Q&A - questions 
always net some big fish and petty quibbles get down-voted out of the way.
