I'd doubt SO is the only go-to platform nowadays for modern matters. In 2009-2018 it was the go-to place for all modern technologies. But since then 1) moderation got more severe, so you can't ask a question like "what packages are there for X?" (even though there are many remaining from the early 2010s) 2) many questions similar to older ones but different in fine details, get closed quickly. I see new tech go to their own forums based on Discourse. So, since 2020, I'd still come to SO for answers already available, but for a place to make new questions -- I'd look elsewhere.
