I'm in the top 4% this year based on a Q/A I wrote in 2021 which it gathers a few votes a month. The ranking is an indicator of how pointless SO has become if I'm globally in the top 4% this year having posted nothing.
For me, there's no incentive to answer questions. It takes too long to get an answer, and the reply is usually some snide comment because too many assume it's an XY problem. It's generally worse than asking ChatGPT even when the AI gets it horribly wrong.
As for answering questions, I'd rather do that on my blog. Posting to SO is a time investment with zero return.
