Often times when duckduckgoing (is that the right term for that) advice for products, I use the !ddgr key to directly search reddit for advice. But in a post-blackout world, I need to do this a lot less. So I want to know what the best places are to get reviews and advice for products that are human and not top 10 listicals.
Hi all - would love to get some help from any trans masc folks out there:
A cis friend of mine runs a small men’s barbers in my small town and he wants to make sure he’s inclusive to trans guys and anyone who presents masculine
I’m working with an organization of professional women who want our trans sisters to know they will be welcome and accepted in the group.
What’s the best way to do this in our media when having events, etc?
Because my brain goes “trans women are women, of course they’re welcome!” but I know that isn’t always the case and want to allay any concerns folks might have about joining.
Are there ways you’ve found to indicate while not othering? #advice#askfedi
I would seriously consider disabling "Generate Link Previews" feature in any critical communication applications you use. Such feature typically leaks some information about your device (typically at least the IP address). Such features also increase the attack surface for little practical benefit. #advice#privacy#infosec#foreshadowing
Question: I migrated to Mastodon from Twitter about 6 months ago. When I came here, the advice I read over and again was to use tags to find interesting posts and people. But I see so few people using tags. Why? Are they not useful after a certain time on the platform?
My situation has just drastically changed. You do NOT need a #Cohost account to read this post.
TL;DR: My father is now at risk of losing his job, which means my parents are going to keep me in this house to take my money. My mother continues to try to scare me out of moving out. I have nowhere to go. I need guidance. Please help me.
I need some help. My disability is making it extremely difficult to maintain my coding career. I'm seriously considering transitioning out of it. I enjoy talking to people and helping them through the problems they're working on, I'm thinking of doing mentoring/coaching/teaching, etc. I enjoy seeing others succeed, and like helping, but I have no idea how to make that into a living. Advice appreciated. Boost for reach.
We’re heading up north to see the eclipse next week. #fabric folk in #canada, specifically #montreal#quebec, any fun places for fabric, ribbon, yarn, webbing etc that I should look up? Especially any place that sells locally made materials? #sewing#advice#recommendations
I have a newly graduated SW Eng (BS in CS) who is struggling to find a job and getting advice to go back and get a Master’s Degree in #LLM in order to be more marketable.
I’ve always heard that grad degrees aren’t strictly necessary in SWE to start but is this changing? Are there other time investments that make more sense (open source contributions, certifications, personal projects, etc?)?
Best places to get human reviews/recommendations outside of reddit?
