I don't know if it's just money or saturation. At some point you have answered the same questions multiple times. Your remark on Ubuntu is interesting. I'm supposed to be a Linux guru(*) in some circles, and this is part of why I have a job. I do google a lot of things on the StackOverflow network, but seldom answer because over time the unanswered questions on SO are very likely to be much too specific and out of my comfort zone, and answering them correctly would take me hours, and this isn't part of my job description and objectives...
(*) but like evebody else I'm a complete fraud. There are things I know well, but just setting up this forum made me foray in completely uncharted territory....
