| Nov 17, 2018 at 6:39 | comment | added | user1118321 | Regarding disliking linked-list questions or programming challenges, can't you set up an "ignore tags" list and the UI will de-emphasize questions with those tags? I've done this on one or two sites where there are popular categories that I don't want to see. (I wish it would just leave them out of the feed, but that's another story.) | |
| Nov 8, 2018 at 18:12 | comment | added | mdfst13 | @JohnHamilton Downvoting a new user's question purely to say that you personally don't like that question has the impact of telling said new user that you don't like them whether you meant it that way or not. It's quite rude and people should avoid doing it. It is one of the reasons why Stack Exchange is considered an unfriendly place. | |
| Nov 8, 2018 at 6:01 | comment | added | John Hamilton | @mdfst13 I disagree with you there. The downvote button merely means "I don't like this question." and it could just as well be used for uninteresting or repetitive questions. | |
| Nov 7, 2018 at 14:10 | comment | added | mdfst13 | I'm not sure that downvoting questions for merely being uninteresting or repetitive is the way to go. It would make more sense to upvote and call attention to good questions. Save the downvotes for questions that are actually bad. | |

close md emphasis (correct if incorrect); fix typos

More experienced programmers would not probably have a question about a real world application. On the other hand, a student will likely have a question about code they came across or wrote in class. | |
