I feel like so many people talk about how it's not searchable or other concerns but for me I don't really care so much because there's an even bigger deal breaker which is their license agreement, where you sign away the property rights of anything you post, giving away your entire open source project.. This alone should disqualify it for any work of any creative sort. They own things you give them. I would never use it for development because of this.
Is this an actual thing or is it a misinterpretation of the standard boilerplate "you grant us a non-exclusive non-transferrable license to do the basic things that make a post visible to other people on the internet" message that every platform where you post stuff has?
I'm not personally knowledgeable on it, just going off what the investigation told why we stopped using it in our project really
