This is rule 7 of 10 in my post 'How to Ask for help in Slack'[1]

1. I have ‘rubber duck debugged’ my own question.

2. I checked that this question hasn’t been asked before.

3. I have noted in my message what I’ve tried.

4. I have avoided the ‘XY problem’ by clearly detailing the core problem, X.

5. I have provided specifics of my issue, not vague references or descriptions.

6. I have provided URL links to relevant content, and where possible the URL links are immutable.

7. I have not included screenshots of text in my message.

8. I have not used obscure acronyms or abbreviations.

9. I have formatted my message well, particularly paying attention to code formatting and headings.

10. I have not just said “hi” and waited for a reply.

Like other posters, I don't think Apple OCR is sufficient to make up for screenshotting. The biggest problem is search.
