Maybe I should have just linked the blog post: https://invariantlabs.ai/blog/mcp-github-vulnerability

Yep had to do a lot of work getting it to a good place.

Yep users move over time. Its the natural order of things. I disagree with the article that moving away from SO is "bad news for developers " as long as we have something better in the works. It looks like Discord is the thing everyone is jumping on, which kinda sucks.

Yep I agree. Its a combo of many different things.

I cant tell you the last time I was on SO for a question. its been that long.

The article also goes into it, but I think the invent of AI and asking somewhat specific questions may also explain the decline. If you can get a result that can get you 90% of the way there with an AI that used stack overflow as a resource, theres no reason to actually ask on stack overflow. Its faster to go on the AI result or go on google/bing/etc…etc… that has the answer right there on the page.

And the redesign…its pretty bad in my opinion.

I was once downvoted answering a question on a library…that I created on stack overflow. Still makes me laugh.

I hacked my CPAP. I removed the cancer causing material and did work getting the software in a better state. Also removed the mobile chip that communicates with the original company. Fun times.
