Where can I ask a question like:
What does the string "scrlybrkr" do in URLs?
It doesn't seem to fit particularly well on any of the Stack Exchange sites that I've checked.
Edit: I figured out what it was, the reason it was doing weird stuff was because of Securly(which is installed on my school Chromebook), it doesn't do much if your device doesn't have Securly.
That question shouldn't be asked anywhere within the SE network if all you have is an observation and answers are at best trivia. For example:
it is a query string used for tracking and analytics
or
It is a content filter for schools.
What have you and future visitors now learned? Not much useful I would argue.
If this url is used in a context where you need something solved, logged, untracked, etc it can become on-topic on several sites, depending on context. Until then you have to find a chat room or a site outside of the SE Network to get an answer for that question.
You are right, due to the lack of details, the "question" doesn't look to be a good fit for any Stack Exchange site.
It looks that there is a misconception about what "question" means in Stack Exchange, in a community tour, the articles about like How to ask a good question from the communities' Help Centers and in mosts meta posts that discuss the post type named question.
Stack Exchange is not about "questions" as they are defined in Wikipedia (links and formatting not included)
A question is an utterance which serves as a request for information. Questions are sometimes distinguished from interrogatives, which are the grammatical forms typically used to express them. Rhetorical questions, for instance, are interrogative in form but may not be considered bona fide questions, as they are not expected to be answered.
Someone might argue that SE questions are requests for information but that is not really correct as SE sites are not information request services (see digital reference). SE sites serve communities that are working together, to build a knowledge base about certain topic.
Questions come in a number of varieties. Polar questions are those such as the English example "Is this a polar question?", which can be answered with "yes" or "no". Alternative questions such as "Is this a polar question, or an alternative question?" present a list of possibilities to choose from. Open questions such as "What kind of question is this?" allow many possible resolutions.
Polar questions and alternative questions are not allowed in any main site. It might be possible to ask a question where the answer might be Yes or no, one option or another, but should invite to explain why and how, and never should be about trivial or non-relevant stuff (boring, short-living, helpful/interesting only to the asker or to a very narrow niche) from the point of view of the core community.
Considering this clasification, SE questions are open questions but not all of them are allowed. SE questions should be "answerable", "good subjective questions". What exactly these attributes means for each community varies.
Questions are widely studied in linguistics and philosophy of language. In the subfield of pragmatics, questions are regarded as illocutionary acts which raise an issue to be resolved in discourse. In approaches to formal semantics such as alternative semantics or inquisitive semantics, questions are regarded as the denotations of interrogatives, and are typically identified as sets of the propositions which answer them.

SE questions are closer to Inquiry (links and formatting not included)
An inquiry (also spelled as enquiry in British English)[a] is any process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem. A theory of inquiry is an account of the various types of inquiry and a treatment of the ways that each type of inquiry achieves its aim.
Each Stack Exchange community, as a community of inquiry, has its own process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem. All SE communities use the same "implementation model" / "template": there is a post called question which might have none, one or multiple posts called answers. During this process there might be flags, votes, comments, chat messages and meta posts to help clarify, improve and even delete questions and answers known as moderation. Post are moderated by the community. The specific working details varies on each community.
