Compared to 10-12 years ago, I don't honestly believe it has the same high quality.
- Jensson 4y agoI remember there being a lot less political discussions back then, remember when every non programming thread had a guy referencing the site rules saying it should be removed? I think political discussions reduces the quality of the site, not because they aren't interesting but because it is so easy to farm karma in them that we now have many high karma accounts that aren't experts in some field.
