Maybe make a rule that you should not upvote a post unless it teaches you something?
I’m not going to do that. I don’t mind reading things that I already understand. It is useful to hear the same concepts explained differently and even just be reminded of knowledge I already have floating about in my brain. I find that if anything I am reading is particularly obvious I instinctively start skimming anyway.
As far as I am concerned, the only downside to posting ‘obvious’ things is that you waste your posting time.
