Jeremy, you're not really old until your body feels it necessary to remind you of it Every. Single. ing. Moment. Of. The. Day.

I used to think my dad was old; I am now 26 years older than he was when he passed away. In my head I'm about 15.

Itβs weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.

I just have to throw my hands up and admit you're not wrong.
Doesn't CP collect birthdates in our profiles? It would be interesting to see what the median age on CP is...and whether new subscribers are bringing it up, or down, over time...
Speaking of which, CP has been at 15.9M subscribers forever it seems. Are we ever going to see it reach 16M?

I tend to shy away from talking about this stuff these days; a lot of peeps here are too emotional about everything it seems. The less success a person has, the more emotional they are about crap. Anyway, IMO with the exception of the AI stuff, CP has gotten stagnant. I know for a fact the website design is a relic of the past, for instance. And yet, those with zero design experience will get upset when I say that.
This entire site was built around a MS centric stack. That's by and large the user base. That worked in the 90s when MS was one of the only serious players in the game, but these days we got lot dev going on that has nothing to do with MS... not the least of which is Rust. So, IMO unless CP adapts and stays fresh and new, it's always gonna be the old timers here just living in the past.
Nothing against MS development btw. I'm just a realist who pays attention. Which apparently, makes others upset. But, if you think about all the times CP has went down and why nothing was ever put in place to start preventing outages over the years... it's like they gave up. Hell, even their URL scheme is from the 90s. But, you can't say that without people getting emotional.
I ain't gonna make any friends today.
Edit: Peeps will always say "we don't have time" but I've managed enough folks to know that's the number one excuse for anything. If it takes 20 years to do something, time isn't the issue. It's a matter of priority, drive, and/or how much you care.

Seems to me that what stack CP is built on bears little relationship to the content it hosts. I see more non-MS-related topics than MS-related in the General Programming section, for instance.
That said, I can see it is built on ASP.NET Framework. It might be good to rebuild the front end on Blazor or something. Someday, right?
