Why are there so many upvotes on low effort posts of people who've done no reasearch, while highly detailed troubleshooting posts get absolutely NO attention?

I don't know any other solution to this than to just stop giving such garbage attention. It's not as simple, but I can't think of anything else.

Title, basically. I've made like, 5 troubleshooting posts in the last 2 years in this sub, and I only made one when I was ALL out of options.

I listed detailed specs, described the problem, provided my config, mentioned every little thing I've tried, ( look at my post history if you don't belive me), and basically followed every rule and guideline given,

But the most amount of comments I've got on a post is like 5. The problems in those posts were never solved, and I ended up just aimlessly trying stuff until I got to a successful hack.

It then infuriates me that low effort garbage then proceeds to show up in my home page with like 5 times the upvotes.
