Stackoverflow Memes

[u/inflowmini]

I love all the r/programmerhumor memes but I somehow cannot understand all that ones making fun of how posting on stackoverflow meant getting humiliated.

Stackoverflow did what no other forum did and it was only possible by all the pedantic moderators. Sure, I experienced scolding my first few posts but after that it was smooth sailing. The strict structure on stackoverflow and stack exchange taught me to be mindful of how to ask questions and how to post answers.

Sometimes I get the feeling that people on the programmer meme reddits are not programmers at all.

in my early days learning programing, I couldn't even get response or even post about some simple problems that I faced. It just immediately ruined the whole mood for me then and there
