    Can you please tell me why? I read about it and made a lot of noise but I forgot what it was about.

    If i recall A lot of power user even threaten to delete their post as strike?

      I think the big one recently is the opt in ai training. A lot of people were not happy with their data being hoovered up and making so a ton of $$. So they are replacing their answers with nonsense/deleting them. Plus there’s now ai bots that are on so…such a strange world.

      SO is only useful if it’s filled with things that help out users. If it starts getting less foot traffic, an evaporation effect occurs where more and more uses leave thereby making it even less useful.

        Thanks :) Now I remember ! It’s always AI…

        Dunno how good their strike went and/or/if their actions had any effect on stack* and derivatives…

        I just hope there will be some open source replacement maybe with federation? Dunno, I’m not a contributor but stack* most of the time solved my questions I had and I will probably miss the human interaction :/.
