Some of you of course are going to say depends on the topics, so let’s throw in a few topics.
Let’s start with driving, then politics, how about sex, and last but not least parenting, that enough for you?

After a brief perusal of the response counts on the first page (35 questions) of the social section, I’d say 30 or more is a lot.
Sometimes it’s 50 or more. Sometimes it’s just one. It totally depends.
One correct answer is all that’s necessary. This isn’t a competition.
Depends on the topic.
Couldn’t resist. :-)
Many questions ask for an opinion. In those cases, the more responses the better. It gives the asker a good mix of ideas to choose from.
If someone asks how to bypass the electronic lock on their car, four or five should cover it.
For this question, half a dozen seems just right.
More than six, but only counting distinct actual answers to the question, not duplicates, discussion, off-topic, requests for more info, etc.
