Maybe, but with one caveat. I would want to have the advice from 2 or more people, and only if they couldn't see each other's responses. It's hard to know when programming advice is wrong if you're not familiar with a language or a framework, so there'd be no way to know if the advice was actually useful. If I could get 2 or 3 people's answers to the question and they were all the same that would increase my confidence that they're actually right, and that my $25 was well spent.

As a developer I would also be quite happy to sit with a chat app open answering questions for $5 each if I could choose what to answer and there weren't too many problems actually getting paid.

Thank you very much for your feedback and ideas! I truly appreciate it!

Great point about having multiple people answer the question! Others also brought up that point, so it is certainly something to look out for.

The chat app idea makes a lot of sense. Why would "there weren't too many problems actually getting paid" be important for you?
