A simple search on 'chess960' yields a list of about four questions which result in additional questions -- apparently unlimited in number -- after expanding any of the original questions. Shown here is the list for chess960.
And here is the same list using numbered bullets:-
-
People also ask:-
- Why is Chess960 not popular?
- Why is it called Chess 960?
- Is Chess960 better than chess?
- Is Chess960 the future of chess?
- How do I get good at Chess960?
- How popular is Chess960?
- How many positions are there in Chess960?
- Will chess ever be solved?
- Is castling a real chess move?
- Is it good to play Chess960?
- Do people play chess 960?
The two questions about popularity (no.1 and no.6) link to further resources, and I imagine that most (all?) of the other questions also lead to other resources. Some of the questions are about fact (no.2 and no.7), others are opinion (no.3 and no.4; I say 'Yes!', but I'm obviously biased).
One curiosity is that almost all references to chess960 use the uppercase form, 'Chess960'. Almost no one does this for 'chess'. Here's a similar list for a search on 'fischer random chess':-

People also ask
- How do you play Fischer Random Chess?
- Can you Castle in Fischer Random Chess?
- What does Fischer mean in chess?
- Why is it called Chess 960?

- What does FF mean in chess?
- Can a rook be called a castle?
- Can pawns move backwards?
- How many times can we check in chess?
- Why is Chess960 not popular?
Question no.6 had me stumped, so I expanded it. 'FF' apparently means,
A fairy chess piece, variant chess piece, unorthodox chess piece, or heterodox chess piece is a chess piece not used in conventional chess but incorporated into certain chess variants and some chess problems.
What does that have to do with chess960? We may never know. When I get a chance, I'll take a closer look at Google's 'People also ask' feature on my main blog.
