This is such a good article. One of the best in a while 👍

I tried that for a while. Now every day I get a little bit closer to just... giving up 😔

Still searching for jobs. Still nothing. I don't think I'll ever get a webdev job again at this rate. At this point I'll take anything that pays better than "glorified climbing gym janitor."

WTF BlueSky.
Sorry. Is there a way to report that?

Yes, 16 years as a frontend web developer. 8 years specializing in React development.

My family needs income. That's the source of my stress and anxiety. I'm just a drain on our funds as long as I'm alive right now...

There's no community that can help me.

Frontend/React developer jobs. I have 16 years of experience. The gap between jobs is because I can't get a job.

I am not in the right mental state to learn how to become a full-stack dev while unemployed. Id rather jump off a building.

Based on what? It's been almost a year now. A year of applying to jobs without getting close to an offer. Nobody wants to hire me. I've made recommended changes to my resume, nothing helps. And now I'm starting to get rejected because some employers don't like the gap in my work history. I'm fucked.

If anything has been made clear to me, it's that I do not got this.

I don't think I will

Can I just give up?

Did you fall off Berserk or just run out of room? I think I have up to 12 but I'm still on 9 or so. It did lose steam for me. It started out so good though.

I've seen keyboards like this. I know nothing about them. They look cool but I don't think I could make the switch as I can't live without my numpad 😩

I mean I left because it was turned into Truth Xocial and the owner was spreading blatant EASILY DISPROVEN misinformation/lies on the daily.

Somehow I don't think that will happen here.
