Stack Overflow has a CEO? WTF for? It's a repository of information. All the LLMs have already ripped a copy of the site, so where were they planning to generate revenue?

I hope someone starts a version and integrates it with activitypub and then users can donate towards the hosting costs.

Stack Overflow is supposed to be the wiki of developers, not a fucking business. I hate these greedy fucks. "let's make money from other people's time and effort" 🤮🤮🤮

I mean I agree with you but someone has to pay for server costs, that all by it self doesnt make them greedy.

A federated version would be really cool though!

And now they also have to pay back like 2 billion dollar of investor money... What sense does this make?
