In defense of SO. I don't think # of questions is not the best metric. Pageviews or up votes is better. If the question already exists, it doesn't need to be asked again. Also, I have the perception that tech stacks have stopped changing as much. Ten years ago we were constantly changing tech stacks and front-end frameworks, so we had to rely on SO to relearn constantly. That seemed to have stopped.
