imho the experience is miserable, they went out of their way to strip all warmth from messages (they have a whole automated thing to get rid of all greetings and things considered superfluous) and there are many incentives to score points by answering which frankly I find sad, it doesn't look like a forum where people exchange, it looks like a permanent run to answer and grow your point total

    Stackexchange sites aren't intended as forums, they're supposed to be "places to find answers to questions".

    The more you get away from stack overflow itself the worse they get, though, because anything beyond "how can I fix this tech problem" doesn't necessarily have an answer at all, much less a single best one
