It's difficult to enter an established space, especially with products like a major social network because it's become a daily part of people's lives. It puts it on the user to actively work to use a new platform when the old one is still there and more active. It's hard not to have FOMO when you're not on the larger one.
Plus.. leaving due to hate only motivates for so long.
I’ve been using Bear but it’s only on Apple products so I can’t use it on my work laptop which is Linux. It uses this like visual markdown which I just think looks nice and it’s easy to use.
I grew up a Halo fan so I’ve just been playing Infinite in my free time. I take online really casually now unlike I used to so I’m actually enjoying just playing.
I grab a song I like on Spotify and do the “go to song radio” and it will usually give me some alright stuff. I’ll usually keep playlist of ones I like and add good songs to it.
Honestly im not sure there is much you can do. I had 3 twitter accounts: my personal one that I’ve had for 10+ years, a programming one, and a political one. All 3 were shadowbanned as far as I know (using one of those online tools to check accounts) and no idea for how long. I don’t get a lot of followers and any of them until recently.
When Elon Musk started to purchase twitter I checked again and all 3 weren’t shadowbanned anymore.
Everyone couple of months I do a “purge” of my social media. I just delete the apps from my phone for a few days or a week. I have no set schedule for doing it but I know I need it when I’m angrily on twitter or Reddit most of my workday.
I would echo the part about continually making content. Releasing videos at consistent intervals and at the same time, say every Monday at 8:00am, is suppose to make you “look good” to YouTube and can boost your reach.
I keep 3 separate Twitter accounts for different things. One is super free of toxicity because it’s all about tech. One is political and wow…. It’s pretty bad.
No shame in hating a job but it’s much easier to find a job while you have one. You can take your time and find the right fit instead of grabbing the first place that gives you an offer. A few years ago I found myself out of a job with quite a bit to savings and while I eventually found a job, the stress of not having one was real.
With that said, any other time I’d say go for it if you’re comfortable spending full time job searching, but during a pandemic... it’s going to be harder to find places hiring.
I think this is what people don't fully understand. Bitcoin is not the exception, it's just the first to hit this wall. Even if Bitcoin Cash were to take over with larger block sizes, we'll see the same problem just further down the line.
I don't find value in cussing in any setting personally. I don't mind when others cuss, but I just don't really feel it necessarily when I speak. I find it ironic at my place of work.. we're told not to wear headphones working long term at a clients office, but my CEO has no problem cussing in a pitch meeting with a new client.
Php with Laravel. It's easy to get up and running and the MVC framework keeps everything nice and organized. Eloquent queries are a tad weird to get use to but it cuts back on heavy looking query statements. Plus you'll get to use php7!
