Same. I’m ‘all-in’ when it comes to Lemmy, but I only subscribed to a dozen subreddits I remember enjoying, and that’s it. Now I simply either sub to a new Com when I stumble upon it, or search for it after remembering a specific subreddit.

I’d rather leave Apollo/Reddit behind 🤷‍♂️

A little bit, absolutely! Not to be too cynical but eventually this feeling will wane a bit. 7yrs in I still think I have a cool/chill job (dev)—and comparatively I make “good” money—but it’s still a job; I don’t code in my free time anymore. Once I’m done for the day I’d rather not look at a screen any more.

This all said, congrats!!

Waaay too old…

Of course not, dude. I switched careers from music to software dev at 28 without any formal education (now 7yrs later a senior dev).
