| 2 days ago | comment | added | civitas | Two things might be helpful depending on where the user community is located relative to your headquarters. Maybe some of the original development team (support members not coding members) can be embedded in user companies to help the users in those locations. Invite knowledgeable users to come in and share their experiences and needs. | |

| 2 days ago | comment | added | 8192K | Writing this on SE when SE is kind of dying because of AI is a bit cynical, but: feed the code to a good AI. It will figure out what it's meant for (and might enable you to offer some initial kind of support) and be able to greatly assist in rewriting portions or most of it. But always BYOB: bring your own brain, of course. | |

| 2 days ago | comment | added | Lundin | This might provide some insights: workplace.stackexchange.com/a/199770/148957. Do you feel comfortable at/recognized yourself as the one being described as the senior dev in that post? If not, is there at the very least someone like that in your team who you can learn from? If the answer is still no, get the friendy way out of there. | |
