Sadly the pandemic forced people to fill in the empty gaps of their time. There was a trend, especially during spring 2020, that if you didn't learn too much or got couple of certifications the pandemic downtime was wasted. That's how I believe this started.

Solution? I would say let's start with an algorithm that values quality content, authors with a record and articles that are not the definition of commodity.

Seriously, I don't visit sites like dev.to to read tips on how to start with angular or reading "you should do it too" in every second article.
