Jan 28 at 13:27 comment added halt9k Also spam posts with "downfall graph" always looked noticeably sloppish to me. I.e. it wouldn't be surprising if it will be discovered that medium.com was regularly ordering posts in Twitter and Reddit about SO fall from 2020 to 2024 as part of their marketing strategy. They were the main competitor of SO in Google if to exclude AI.
Jan 28 at 9:55 comment added Journeyman Geek You'd be surprised - quite a lot of the hate outside is aimed at 'moderators' and curation actions, and very little is about the company and actions here unless they're current or former SE users. Quite a lot of the hate is from people who heard from people who heard from people. I've mentioned this specifically a little further on.
Jan 28 at 9:43 comment added SPArcheon I was going to upvote this. Until I saw the "frankly often by toxic folks". I disagree. Those aren't "toxic" trolls hating the site "for the lol". Those are exasperated people that face the despair of seeing that they helped build destroyed and distorted little by little. I doubt the network is so popular to be seen as trolling material by random internet hater that never cared or interacted with it. Whatever "toxic hater" we have were created by the actions the company took over the last years.

Jan 23 at 3:09 comment added Journeyman Geek tbf, that's basically what every AI fanboy says. "Its the future! It is inevitable!" . It may not be the hammer we need to turn our bolts
Jan 22 at 16:54 comment added user400654 What i find so frustrating is every time the conversation about how stack is using/pushing ai, any criticism of it is thrown aside as "You just hate AI!" and... it's frustrating. I hate how businesses abuse AI and use it in ways that aren't better than "the old ways". I like when i see it used in a way that is actually better than what it's replacing. Stack has done nothing but spin their wheels with solutions that don't do anything useful or do it in a low value way.
Jan 22 at 16:14 comment added Journeyman Geek As an aside, I'd say to an extent, telling folks AI is inevitable and we need to change our ways to it, and talking about how the human factor is.. a little tonal whiplashy.
