This hasn’t been my experience at all and I’ve found that chatgpt saves a ton of time over filtering SO.

I loved SO when it first started, but it got frustrating over time as moderators seemed to be too strict around removing “duplicate” answers.

It’s hard to know for sure, but I always felt SO would be better with a more Wikipedia approach that didn’t rely as much on opinionated mods.

It’s a tough place to be and I don’t think it’s possible to make a ton of money, I think it went downhill when the original founders sold a few years ago.

Tell me you don't know how Wikipedia works without telling me you don't know how Wikipedia works

The mods of Wikipedia operate very differently than the mods at SO. I think there are more rigorous rules with SO than Wikipedia and they also have their tiers of users who upvote messages. Wikipedia has nothing like this.
