I’ve always been a “lurker” on all platforms and communities because when I do have a question or would like to contribute my first thought has become:

Actually, let me google it first

In which case I’ll usually have some answer. Usually it isn’t a complete answer but enough for me to not want to share my question anymore.

    I do google a lot of stuff before bringing it up in a conversation, just to be sure I’m not making stuff up, even if it’s something I’ve looked up 100 times

      Same but mostly because I’ve had conversations with people who will Google something to tell me I’m wrong when the whole point was the conversation, not being right.
