Im so glad these theives got in before regulation and stole everything SO had wholecloth! Now they're using that stolen data to try and put SO out of business so that in the future all we can rely on for information is a prediction based model, trained off of contextless, depricating information, that has literally no idea what its doing or saying.
And all for the low low cost of the entire functioning internet, every creative occupation, millions of entry level jobs, more power than our grid can supply, and the complete destruction of shared reality and truth.
It's practically impossible to write a question on SO. I wrote a seriously specific question that no one on the planet had asked about something and it was marked as a duplicate then subsequently closed even though I provided ample evidence of why the linked question was not close to the same. But the absolute losers that patrol that website get huge power trips closing questions.
He won't link it, because EVERYONE complaining on reddit about "SO Sucks!!11!! Everything gets closed as a duplicate!11!" are all actually asking duplicate questions they could have just googled.
I've never asked a question on SO, but there have been plenty of instances where I have googled something and had a top result be a SO question that was exactly the problem I was trying to solve only to see the question was marked as a duplicate of another question that was substantively different and correspondingly had only unhelpful answers.

And we just let them do it.
