This is the complete, real migration of @mk.gg from the Bluesky PDS to a new Cirrus PDS Worker.
The more boring bits are sped-up to get it under the 3 minute video limit. The real thing took about 12 mins.

While Stackoverflow had its own problems, I've been seeing a very similar trend for most open source projects as well. Often they are used (by indicators like e.g. downloads) more than ever before but no longer have any insight into how or how to improve.
This chart shows the total number of Stack Overflow questions asked each month. As you can see, AI summaries in Google and AI coding tools have nearly killed the site. It is only a matter of time before the site shuts down completely. The golden age of independent web is over.

Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing.
I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink.
But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.
