Oh well, there goes the removal of my monthly donation.

I’m about 1.5 years into it. Lost most passion for the job, but there are flashes of motivation here and there. Considering trying to move into full time development, but that would take a lot of effort. Tired of keeping up with the kubernetes ecosystem too.

Knowing this is a volunteer project, I’d never request renumeration. If I were contracting with a large company, I guess I’d charge 300-500 per day. That’s just based on quotes I get on LinkedIn, as I’ve never worked as a contractor. Also I couldn’t have it interfere with my main job, where I’m also on call, so it would be lower priority.

I have the experience, but not the energy nor passion as I am almost burned out already. I hope you find some awesome people.

You’re really overthinking this buddy and making a lot of assumptions. And not to mention wasting your own damn time.

Wtf are you even smoking? See, another question that you can respond to.

Notice how it was a question? See this ‘?’

My last part was a question, not an accusation.

Lemmy has a smaller audience, so it makes sense to charge more. And everything is getting more expensive these days anyway.

How’s it tinfoil hat? It’s very clear how much tracking is going on if you don’t subscribe. None of this stuff is made up.

It’s more like blackmail tbh. “Pay or i’ll track the shit out of you and sell the data to advertisers”. I can see why people are put off, and I am also. And what’s the guarantee if we pay that the data isn’t collected and sold anyway?

I’m guessing the dev is cashing out and probably doesn’t expect Lemmy to last.

If you have to tell somebody you’re the alpha, then you’re definitely not the alpha.

“He really Musked it this time”.

Yeah I have. I work in tech, so I know better :)

My truenas backs up to B2 Backblaze. Set it up years ago and haven’t touched it since.

He means what was formerly called iBooks.

I’d love to see recruiters who recruit in their free time, or surgeons who perform surgery in their free time.

Then you mute slack.

If I’m on call and out somewhere, I don’t want to have to carry two phones.
