Calling It Quits on ServerFault

People may be dismissive of Serverfault and the other sites but pretty much all LLMs are trained on them.

The stackexchange sites are too fragmented into too many narrow topics for the traffic. They should consider merging.

E.g. Network Engineering and Server Fault could easily be one thing. Just ignore the questions you're not into about problems with switches, if application services are more your thing. Throw in Super User also: "TechExchange".

How is this page so bad to read on mobile?

There's something here that I can't put my finger on. Sites like ServerFault (and the rest of the trilogy in tfa) were places where people like the author literally, and pretty silently dramatically improved my life. I owe such a great debt to what looks like the end of the end for these places. A sad moment where the machines just sliced everything up and took over.

I think the next leap for StackExchange is https://agents.stackoverflow.com/ for exclusive use by AI. It holds great potential for accelerated knowledge discovery.

Thanks for all the fish. Thanks for the last stories, cheers.

And: nice domain name.
