If posting your question where a subject will be used (email, forums, reddit, etc), don't just make the subject "need help!". You've made it luck of the draw who clicks through. "Need help with React Router" will likely improve the quality of people who click through. Similarly, on chat programs, don't PM people. Please! If you have a general technical/business/etc question, a channel is a far better venue: everyone in the channel can be a candidate to answer. You increase the odds of someone being available to answer. Your answer goes into the search history and possibly helps other people who currently have the same question but are afraid to ask. It's also really unfair to put all of the onus onto one person via PM. If the person you would have PM'd is able to answer, they can also answer in the channel.
