  I just realized SO was sold to some random investment fund in June and the corporate speak is now on Meta and Blog. I used to love theirs startup culture. I wish it was sold to a tech giant instead. Tech giants may have their problems but at least the are not speaking this way and I can relate to what they are doing.

  I have enough rep on SO to see the close comment, but many people probably are not able to see this. Not sure what to do about it, copying it here may be not OK and discussing something that seems hidden is awkward.

  I basically was just offended by the wording of the close comment, it was like shut up we know better, comments are not for the discussion. Maybe I'm just reading it wrong.
