why are travel tips getting so lazy lately?

I was scrolling through our travel group last night, hoping to find some clever tricks for saving on flights or maybe a hidden gem hotel recommendation. Instead, all I saw were posts like, “How do I book a flight?” or “What can I do for two hours in Newark airport?” Honestly, it feels like people aren’t even trying anymore! I remember when folks would share detailed hacks—like the time someone explained how to use credit card points to get a first-class upgrade. Now, it’s just basic questions anyone could Google in five seconds. It makes me wonder: are we running out of good travel hacks, or are people just getting lazier? I’ve spent years learning how to stretch a dollar on the road, and it’s frustrating to see the conversation turn into a beginner’s help desk. Maybe I’m just being grumpy, but I miss the days when sharing travel tips actually meant something. Anyone else feel like the quality of advice is slipping? Or am I just turning into that cranky old traveler who complains about everything? #travelhacks #travelcommunity #oldschooltips #Travel

why do travel forums keep repeating the same questions?

So, I was scrolling through my favorite travel forum this morning, hoping to find some clever tips for saving money or packing lighter. But honestly, all I saw were the same old questions: "What should I do in Paris?" or "Is it better to rent a car for two days?" I mean, I get it—everyone wants advice, but isn’t this supposed to be about travel hacks, not basic trip planning? I remember when I first joined, people would share tricks like how to get a free seat upgrade or the best way to avoid jet lag. Now, it feels like a never-ending loop of the same beginner questions. Am I just being grumpy, or do you feel the same way? Have you found any forums or groups where the conversation actually stays on clever travel tips, not just generic questions? Honestly, I miss the days when I’d log in and learn something new. Maybe I’m just nostalgic, but it’s getting a bit frustrating. Do you have any suggestions for where to find real travel hacks online, or is this just how things are now? #travelhacks #travelcommunity #forumfrustration #travelquestions #middleagedtravel #Travel
