I’m sure it was hard to step away from being so involved with such an incredibly huge community. Good on you though.
Thanks, sadly it was a lot easier than you may think. Unless they make major changes there I can’t see them lasting.
Welcome on board - your extensive experience should be a godsend for the relevant communities in here, if you were interested in getting back in the saddle.
Thank you! If you know of any communities in Tech/STEM (I’m a phd biochemist btw) that need some help just point me in their direction.
Compare the mod list today to from say January, or some time last year via the internet wayback machine. It’s quite sad. Also, for obvious reasons I’m using a different username here.
If that is who I think you’re referring to, we didn’t overlap. The founders were gone and made persona non grata (the group gets their feelings hurt when people leave) a VERY long time ago so I’m effectively a stranger to them that’s associated with a group that was hostile to them even if I believe there was complete turnover. Have a look at the mod list now, the longest tenured member is probably at the 4 year mark with the bulk of the team at a year or less. It’s a toxic meat grinder.
