When I was new to AWS and had questions, I found the AWS s subreddit to be a lot better. You have people specifically interested in the topic and you don’t have overzealous moderators.
There is also a higher tolerance for newbie questions and duplicates
Many subreddits are better organized than SO because they funnel newbie questions and duplicates to FAQs, wikis or daily question threads. SO does alert to similar questions during composition, but they're not often what the user is actually asking or not recognizable. subreddit wikis can better respond to that kind of perennial confusion.
