Why you should know: StackOverflow is facing a mod strike in a similar way as Reddit’s mod strike. They are doing this in response to StackOverflow’s failure to address it’s promises and provide moderation tools

Entire programming industry is about to panic!
For real. It might not always give me the answer, but it usually gets me a step closer to at least asking the right question.
Betcha some people lose their jobs when management notices how much less productive they are without Reddit and StackOverflow.
At least school’s out for summer.
The quality of programming-related content on Reddit is absolutely terrible. The major lanuage-related subreddits are almost nothing but people self-promoting their latest Medium blogspam or thousands of people patting someone on the back for sharing their first “Hello world” program. Anyone going there for any sort of advice surely didn’t gain any sort of productivity boost.
Um, I would say that stackoverflow contributes to productivity, but reddit is likely mostly detrimental. Never used Reddit for work, not even programming subreddits, but StackOverflow all the time.
