    The new Stack Overflow will be one built to feel like a personalized homepage—your own technical aggregator. It might collect videos, blogs, Q&A, war stories, jokes, educational materials, jobs, all these formats (or maybe others, we would love to hear your ideas!), and fold them together into one personalized destination.

    reaching for that stack overflow

    I’m skeptical. We’ll see how they implement it, and whether they can gain enough contributors for it to be useful.

      They are trying to be old Reddit? I don’t think there is the demand.

      Too many competing services, they don’t have anything that distinguishes themselves, and also took a reputation hit. And many super users there left over mismanagement.

      Too many hurdles if good management, and their management sucks

      Edit: the only thing that gives them value is their old pages; a makeover would at minimum, hamper that I think
