How often are you using Stack Overflow these days?

Question

I wanted to ask the community at large about their Stack Overflow habits. Personally I've used the site for years as a reasonably reliable source for finding answers to questions but around 2020 onward have noticed a (personally) sharp decline in answer frequency and answer quality.It's to the point that today I skipped over multiple Stack Overflow links in a search today in search of other options that I figured I'd pose this question to everyone else.Are you still using Stack Exchange regularly, or have you also noticed a decline in its usefulness? How do you deal with this issue, and have you found alternative resources that you trust more?Personally I use Mailing Lists/Github Issues to find help with issues - I also acknowledge that this may be a personal bias on my part, wherein as I grow as a developer, I increasingly need specific answers to questions as opposed to more "Stack Overflow Friendly" ones.

Once you become proficient at something, it's likely you don't need basic questions answered, and that leaves advanced to hard problems.
For me SO is still very important. It has people like Peter Cordes that answer my complicated questions about the inner workings of modern CPUs, inline assembly and other esoterica. You can also find Mark Adler answering questions about CRC computations, polynomials and so on!
