GitHub Issues VS StackOverflow

[@StarOnCheek]

Can't wait to rewatch this another time but with theprimeagen's reaction

[@thepeepeepoopooman1171]

I love that neither actually managed to solve the problem

[@windws7137]

GitHub at least cultural

[@Akhlesoni]

That's the point 😂

[@johntu7484]

all that back-and-forth on both sides, and the original issue remains unresolved. If anything, it highlights how sometimes the debates, bureaucracy, or even community norms can overshadow the actual goal-fixing the darn bug! That’s what makes this video both funny and sadly relatable: you can get stuck in a loop of finger-pointing, rule-citing, or “did you read the docs?” and never arrive at a clear solution. It’s a reality that can happen on any platform when process outpaces problem-solving.

[@Tomtaroo]

​@@johntu7484There's some sort of life lesson in here somewhere about no matter how fancy or well governed a discussion club is it still can't solve problems as well as someone taking action.

[@Croz89]

I've posted in github issues and not only got a solution to the problem, but was asked to suggest how the error message might be improved to make the solution more obvious.

[@TommyLikeTom]

I haven't done this but perhaps github users use copilot to answer forum questions

[@mattymerr701]

I also posted in GitHub issues and had my issue troubleshot and fixed in 3 messages. It was wild

[@redofficiale]

@@TommyLikeTom they don't. It's just a healthy platform in which issues are not misused. Besides that people on both sides are generally more competent in the scope of each issue. Usually people's actual work is halted or troubled in some way because of the presence of an issue so reporting side is willing to share more info to help resolve said problem in effective way. The maintainers themselves are more interested in solving problems and help finding solutions than some random folks on StackOverflow.

[@horion7271]

it still annoys me when i remember my talks with stackoverflow mods: me: What do you mean low effort, i gave you everything i have! mod: not enough to solve me: If it was enough to solve i would have solved it! problem is in there! mod: also duplicate me: Duplicate of what, that thing is 10 years old with 2 answer and no return from owner! mod: get lost idiot. For the record that problem still persist till today. I just found a way to manage it.

[@obeliskphaeton]

😂

[@saeedbarari2207]

well to be bluntly honest, SO is supposed to be an encyclopedia, so you can't expect un-perfect questions to survive. it would be very hard to find the solution to a problem if SO was filled with non-technical chattery and duplicate posts with somewhat-true-but-not-really answers. it has to have perfect questions and perfect answers, anything else has to be filtered out, for the sake of literally every other developer coming to the same issue in the future. good video tho 😂😂

[@alkeryn1700]

give us the issue / stack overflow link i'm curious now.

[@horion7271]

@@alkeryn1700 it is deleted because duplicate

[@horion7271]

@@saeedbarari2207 yes but now it is useless and everyone i know can not use it. Yes it is usefull for some people, i saw it lots of times but three times i needed help they didn't help same for my friends too. So i don't know, i never saw anyone i know can get help from SO. Good for you if you have a unique question thats relevant for today. They will help. for anything else? go somewhere else. There was a guy who helped SO so much he could see deleted questions. He said same things as me, went to SO. In the first page of deleted questions he saw a question that he couldn't answer and a good question overall he said. Admins later undeleted that question but just that my theory is: giving random people ability to delete questions wasn't clever. They like deleting more than answering.

Moral of the story: skill issue

[@k.chriscaldwell4141]

Off topic. Duplicate. Closed. _”Why would you want to do that?”_

[@MrFunny01]

“Im marking this question as duplicate” was a final straw to release the wheezes

[@peasantlord135]

Double edged sword. This is why we can find the solution in top searches, without reading through garbage for hours. My question from 6 months ago has no answers... Maybe I should count myself lucky nobody insulted me just yet.

[@superslash7254]

No, not really. This is why stackoverflow is a dead website whose only content is 10+ years out of date and even then was of limited usability and helpfulness at best.

[@cowbless]

No worries soon nobody will be able to find the solution at all because it's going to be AI slop clogging every search, website and feed.

when I created my first actually useful repo and people started to open issues with silly questions, I realized that you should not worry about opening them, we're in this together. eventhoigh it's my repo, I also don't have much of idea what I'm doing here. especially when its author is willing to take on this issue, should you give him some guidance. it is your project and someone not only finds it useful, but cares enough to assist you with it, even by opening an issue and Stack Overflow folks are just full of themselves that's all

[@123superatom]

still i need the solution from the clip issue, the most standard and official way 😂

[@SegNode]

The guy in the clip issue says the suggested solution works fine locally but fails in production, without more info/example code this is tedious to solve. Most likely it is some kind of CORS/credential issue 🤷.

GitHub Issues - Portrayed as more collaborative, open, and encouraging of suggestions (e.g., “How might we improve the error message?”). Stack Overflow - Depicted as having a higher barrier to entry, with stricter moderation and less patience for questions that appear “low effort” or duplicate.

Had a guy tell me that my post contained too much code because I put 2 different methods in it (first one caused the issue, second one was important for the first ones functionallity), turned out he only knew JS, my code was written in C and he thought the sprintf_s calls and error handling code blocks in my functions (which are really important) were unnecessary garbage that made the code unreadable and slow. StackOverflow is a fucked up place

[@invven2750]

And I thought Stack was about being higher quality

[@testdevk]

Dude, you nailed it.

[@RenatBikaev-nt7hq]

I had a question on StackOverflow. I couldn’t understand why a string variable containing a word in Cyrillic is not output to the terminal, but if I enter a word into the variable and then call it, it is output normally. My question was simply marked as a duplicate, citing that there was already a question about how to display text in Cyrillic... But that’s not what I asked, it’s still offensive.

What does "using" StackOverflow even mean? Posting questions and hoping for quick help? Or reading through answers on year-old questions (typically after getting redirected there by a google search)? For the latter, the site is awesome! The complaints only ever come from those who actually post there...
