I have different technical questions I want to ask. I went to Stack Overflow and they blocked registration with a VPN. It’s really fucking annoying. I can buy a residential IP to bypass this, but I’d rather just not use these enshitified platforms that are so hostile to VPNs.

Is there any decent alternative to Stack Overflow? I have tried getting AI answers to the technical question but they are not good.

And no, I can’t just create a github ID using VPN to login, they block github logins based on IP also.

    I am happy to participate. I do not want my IP and ping data sold to data brokers to serve targeted ads, track me, and go to the police surveillance state. I’m sure you are a good citizen who always keeps location on and feels like life would be easier if everyone just complied.
