I guess I've moved to the part of my career where Stack Overflow isn't that helpful, but I've found a lot of utility in searching issues on GitHub and Reddit posts.

I'm right there with you. It's nice to know it's been there if I needed it. I don't find myself there very often anymore and when I do it's often to compare official docs to other ways to approach something or because the getting started section of the official docs felt weird or wrong.

I'm grateful that Stackoverflow is a valid alternative to reddit for many things. Fuck reddit.
