Haha this is funny but over the last 3 years or so I've found this has stopped being my experience. I think two things that are out of my control changed, that being the community developing more and also me asking slightly less noobish questions.
Something I CAN control though is how I ask questions, and I guess I instinctively learned to avoid that trope you're commenting about. So when I ask a question, I state ALL my research, I link directly to related questions that didn't solve the problem, I link to specific places in docs, I paste in specific parts of my code, and I list out all my constraints. Then at the very bottom, bolded and in a single sentence, I state or restate my question.
Since I started doing that, haven't had the above issue.

This is exactly what StackOverflow highly encourages new users to read before asking questions: https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask
Sadly, some/many don't and then complain because the community is "unwelcoming".
