For the record of anyone else reading, I refuse to insult the intelligence of DEV readers further by responding to this. People who are comfortable with the StackOverflow toxicity see what they want to see, refuse to see what they don't, and no amount of information to the contrary will convince them. You must be prepared to keep a detailed archive of every single instance — eyewitness testimony is not admissable to their court of law and disorder — and be further prepared to defend each and every piece.
And even then, as Meta will quickly show you, they will seldom act on it.
People who are comfortable with toxicity won't call it toxicity, or believe it's that. Everyone else who is sick of those caveman attitudes in tech will read this thread and see the problem.
I still don't understand why you're becoming so defensive about the idea that stack overflow is such a bad platform. DEV seems to work quite well for you, so where's the harm in admitting that for others SO works just as well without implying that we're all just used to toxicity because we're toxic ourselves?
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

I'm moving on to teachable people now. Ta!
