I was disappointed but not surprised. I felt if they were going to shut it down they should’ve at least let the year play out first, don’t just shut it in April.

I'm not surprised Y answers is going the way of Y chat. Without oversight and enforcement of C of C, a public forum becomes a zoo.
Not saying it would be in Y's interest to continue chat or answers, not saying there is a way to have a public forum without having either dedicated volunteers or paid moderators. Just saying.

Didn’t care. The influx of idiots over the past few years made it a dumpster fire. I won’t lose sleep over the shutdown.
