I've found it useful for basically finding the example code for a 3rd party library. Basically a version of Stack Exchange that can be better or worse.
I essentially use it as interactive docs. As long as what you're learning existed before 2021 it's great.
Yeah sadly the times I've gotten screwed is when a major version change occurred in 2022. Got burned once doing that and now I know to check to see if we have upgraded past the version the code works before spending too much time working on it.
