I would just keep the door open, and see how the situation evolves naturally. As long as the negative voters comment on their decision, the questions can be improved or the rules can be adjusted. | |
| Mar 23, 2016 at 12:21 | comment | added | Tester101 Mod | The problem I see, is that most home automation questions are too product specific. Questions tend to be "How do I connect product X with controller Y?". As products tend to come and go; and especially in this area tend to be updated with software, questions/answers will tend to be quite dated. This field seems to be quite segmented, so most questions tend to be about compatibility. | |
