China has not significantly eased restrictions on rare earths exports, contrary to Washington’s expectations.
This is what it's about. Trump got outplayed like the dunce he is and thought he could rollback and pretend nothing happened. Unfortunately take-backsies are not as easy in geopolitics.
Sad to hear, had a very inspired name and the admin was very strong with hosting tech. Unfortunately however a generic instance with lax federation rules and no solid ideology, is a recipe for burning out your admins. The owner seemingly losing interest in lemmy also didn't help.

Also, what do you mean "easily downloadable"? Can anyone download the entire corpus of SO in a way that they could set up their own SO with the same content to bootstrap them?
The need for the service that SO provided won't go away. Eventually people will migrate to new places to discuss. LLM creators will either constantly scrape those as well, forcing them to implement more and more countermeasures and GenAI-poison, or the services themselves will enshittify and sell our content (i.e. the commons) to LLM-creators.
