While reddit's failure with the whole strike was fruitless it does I think highlight that at the end of the day you cannot treat the community in a community oriented products as a second thought.

With stack overflow it's very odd how chasing some flavor of the year is seen as preferable than expanding and enhancing the community aspect of stack overflow.

Reddit and the ongoing SO-vs-moderator conflicts show precisely that. I stopped using Reddit and mostly stopped using SO, but now what? There's no good alternative. I just help fewer people now.
