Ironicry
I think there's only so much oxygen on the 'net for a help site centered around programming. I think to some extent it's a zero sum game and we've been stuck with the local maxima of Stack Overflow, where the nature of social media network momentum has prevented a competitor from forming and overtaking them. I don't necessarily want them to fail or anyone to lose their jobs, but I am happy that LLM's have arrived and replaced my usage of their site. I'm sure a lot of folks love StackOverflow, and it does provide real value, but I'd bet a disproportionately high number of people feel similar to me because of the way they operate that site.
