It still boggles my mind that they closed this down. To date, it was the best job board for software engineers, and had filters you just don't see anywhere else - like filtering by companies that sponsor visas.

Finding work there was a dream, and while there weren't many roles available, they were usually great quality roles. Finding candidates was also great, and all of them were solid candidates that met the basic bar of "can you write some basic code in a language of your choosing".

To be honest, it felt like SO went downhill when Jeff Atwood left.

I agree. It was the only useful job board. One of the very few useful adverts on the internet in general.

Mind boggling that they shut it down.

Well it goes to show that they truly didn't/don't understand their own platform.
