There was a lot of engagement in the communities I participate up until a couple of years ago. People were interested and actively discussing a lot of topics. There were a lot of newbies asking questions and people proposing different ways for tasks.

Is it just me or did it reduce a lot? LLMs? Company forums? Other forums I did not move to (e.g. discord)? Reduced interest? Or is it just subjective?

Sorry for the confusion. I wasn't talking about programming.dev. i thought that's obvious because p.dev isn't that old

I did mention that it was only tangentially related. I did not realize though that programming.dev was not all that old. TIL.
