Comment on Stack Overflow seeks rebrand as traffic continues to plummet – which is bad news for developers
i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 14 hours agoYep, I’ve never needed to ask a question on Stack Overflow as everything I’ve searched for has been answered already… or I’ve looked elsewhere for the answer as I’m not allowed to upvote, downvote or ask questions on it anyway due to lack of karma (or whatever they call it). No wonder it’s in decline if nobody new is allowed to contribute, and every new question is closed as a duplicate anyway.

The barrier to entry is silly.

The barrier to entry is why it’s a good place for answers and not Reddit-quality responses.

Reddit can give quality tech responses though. The voting system on SO would be sufficient.
