I used to care more about the in-community rules for question asking. I totally got it - they want to curate high value question answer pairs. In the old regime this was the best way for the right answer to a question to be on Google.

Now, the rare times I've asked a question, I've violate some rule I've forgotten. Or that's new (they're SO AI allergic).

Reddit, interestingly, has continued to thrive. I think in party because its still largely fun and there are literally millions of communities.

Stackoverflow once benefited from its pedantry, now there's not much value in such pedantry, and its just not a fun place to hang out.
