The communities are started, just no activity.

There's communities but just no one active. There's game threads but am I just supposed to sit there posting to myself all game?

Yeah I expect that and also when 3rd party apps stop working. They still work for now if you're a moderator of a sub so I can still use Boost for Reddit for my needs on mobile. Once that goes away, I can't see myself using the official app. It's so bad.

Does anyone come to these things? Looking to move from Reddit but not having the sports subs is really hurting.

it gives me a definitive separation between work and home.

This is big for me since I don't have an office space at my house. I didn't mind working from home during COVID but I also don't mind having to go into the office. That said, my commute is only like 7 min to the office. I would like to be able to have a hybrid schedule though. Being able to work from home 3 days a week would be ideal for me. My working from home setup is a desk in the corner of my living room so the space where I work is the same room I relax and it was tough to have that separation.

Proof aside form him admitting that he did it?

I like Lemmy a lot more than reddit but not having the sports communities over here really kills the usefulness for me. My main use on reddit is talking baseball/football/hockey/soccer/basketball and the sports world just isn't over here.

Yeah, fuck this guy.

First, I have been online for almost 30 years. I’ve led an open source project for 14 years. I speak regularly at conferences around the world, and socialize with members of the Mozilla, JavaScript, and other web developer communities. I challenge anyone to cite an incident where I displayed hatred, or ever treated someone less than respectfully because of group affinity or individual identity.

So I hid my hatred from everyone for 30 years successfully. Now that everyone finds out that I donated to a cause to strip them of rights everyone wants to say I'm hateful? Give me one example where I displayed hatred....how about the time you donated to strip people of their rights? That might be a big one for me.

It's an old relic from pre-covid where if it was snowing and you needed to come in an hour or two late (like if your kids had a delay at school), you could. Now we all have laptops and can work remotely if needed (minus the branch staff). Also, we didn't get shit for snow here in PA this past winter either.

I manage the business lending department at a credit union ($400MM in assets) and lately we've just had a ton of investors looking for single family homes. For the most part, they're all just couples looking for properties and they only have a few of them but we also have some realtors buying up a bunch of them. Looking for a new job solely because of that. Feel like I'm contributing to the lack of affordable housing. I liked the job more when we were doing loans for farmers/truckers/commercial real estate/or people that needed equipment. I hate dealing with single family homes.

Yeah. We get 2.77 hours per pay period in accrual. The most you can get to is 60 days (480 hours) since they don't offer short term disability. But once you hit 440 hours you can cash out 45 hours of sick time for 15 hours of pay or once you hit 480 you can cash out 60 hours for 20 hours of pay (3:1 conversion to cash).

Yeah, I'm in the US and I understand that a bunch of that might be paid to the tax man but at the very least, I'm getting that cash out. Currently, the only way for me to benefit from it is to get my same salary every week but just have times where I'm not at work which just means I have more work when I come back. Things have been tight since my wife lost her job (though she does have an interview next week so fingers crossed) so just getting even half of that $10.9k in cash back to replenish our rainy day fund would be a big relief.
