Stack Overflow was the "most popular" Q&A site precisely because it was the site Google consistently elevated to the top of the search results queue. The thing that's killing Stack overflow isn't GenAI, it's Google results deprioritization.
More often than not, I currently see Reddit at the top of my results queue in Google when I go fishing for online tech support answers.
