  • I’m glad you were able to recognize the quality of life imprisonment that work from home brought you and the impact it has on you and your family. With more and more ppl back in the office, WFH has shifted from a safety necessity to another ‘perk’ that companies can offer, like 401k matching or a 4/10 work schedule.

    You are doing the right thing by standing your ground, you are indicating to them that they are in danger of losing talent if they do not continue to offer this competitive advantage to their employees, which should be a no-brainer with the work environment you described.

    This should not preclude you from raises imo, and you are smart to be preparing your resume and looking for better opportunities. It is always smart to keep your options open. Good luck!



  • Yep, a majority of the users never saw old.reddit and are used to social media being a single post taking up a whole screen where just tap and move on. A super majority weren’t there for the digg exodus where many of the same issues that are happening now came to a head. Its a totally different group of people on reddit

    Leading up to the blackout I had seen some alternatives suggested, joined Lemmy on Monday and have been very happy with the feel of this place








  • 11 years on reddit and seeing its long slow decline its just sad. A return to the basics was very necessary. Removing subs from r/all, messing with the voting, “new” reddit, a clamp down on content…it just kept getting worse and worse. As long as I could use RIF and old.reddit it was fine, but the writing is on the wall at this point.

    While most of their users are used to the newer layout from other social media, my goal was always to see the most number of posts I could on a single page and have a clean ad-free experience. Lemmy seems to get this
