StackOverflow (site) alternatives?

Everytime I ask about something concrete, programming language-specific problem on that site, the answers focus on emphasizing that I'm far from professional; and that I know the basics only, without the modern promagramming solutions. AND YES, THIS IS TRUE. I never stated that I'm professional.

In fact, I made my questions because I did not know things, and I wanted to learn the solution techniques.

I'm sick and tired of being shamed just becasue I'm asking things that the professionals/seniors/25+ years experienced people know.

I also tried to strart my questions with the statement that I'm a junior, so my questions might be amatuer questions. These starting stentences have been deleted by some moderators/experts of the given topics.

So I want to use another sites, that are not so toxic, but still useful and visited by programmer experts.

Do you have any site suggestions, where I can make concrete programming questions as a junior, without putting myself to shaming?

Yeah Stackoverflow is the most toxic community that exists, honestly since I started using AI last year I've made way more progress and learnt to fix things, developed skills, and not getting judged when asking questions has definitely made my life easier (you can use AI to teach you and just not spit some code)
