I've been out of work for just at two weeks now. Been searching for a new job since about Jan 1st. Got a few small bites, but nothing really. The real changer for me was when I changed my LinkedIn from "Only Recruiters can see I'm Open to Work" to "Everyone can see" I got swarmed... now, that being said. Have not gotten any actual offers yet, but a lot more traction which I do feel will lead to an offer soon. My dynamic is a bit different as due to noncomplete and a significant distaste for the Deep South, relocation is also a requirement for me.

It's really easy to take for granted since most of us have never known any different. in c/whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works

The amount of content was nice from reddit. Eventually, I'm sure this platform will get there.

I hear that the children yearn for the mines.

are you permanently banned off reddit? or do you just like lemmy more? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

The 3rd party app change didn't sit well with me. Ended up stop using reddit on my phone entirely since native was horrible. Ended up coming here when the crackdown on "Luigi" was happening and other censorship that was questionable AF. The amount of content here obviously isn't comparable to reddit, yet, but it's enough to digest throughout the day on work poop breaks and whatnot. :)
