5My thoughts exactly. When all of this started, we've tried to think of it as incompetence (applying Hanlon's razor) - which would have been a shame, while leaving hope that the company would learn -, but now it becomes apparent that this course has been set intentionally. It is no longer imaginable that the decision-makers don't know where this is going.Bergi– Bergi2025-12-09 22:59:01 +00:00Commented Dec 9, 2025 at 22:59

2Full agreement with the last paragraph. I thought so too. Once traffic starts to go down, one may think that that's it and there will be no reversal ever anyway. Then the only question is how to get the most out of the traffic for as long (or short) that it lasts, which is different from a typical more long-term oriented business.NoDataDumpNoContribution– NoDataDumpNoContribution2025-12-10 06:21:36 +00:00Commented Dec 10, 2025 at 6:21

2SE has sadly now arrived at the "eating the seed corn" stage. Attempting to squeeze out as much money as possible - and if the the site suffers long term... well, management already got their bonus, and they might even have sold it off to someone elseCharonX– CharonX2025-12-11 16:17:33 +00:00Commented Dec 11, 2025 at 16:17

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
