I've come back to devRant after, don't know, 2 years, and I get the feeling that this place is much more... hostile than I remembered.
I understand that this is a place to let out frustrations and vent a bit, or post stories and stuff, but I browsed the comments of a few rants, and I'm surprised at how many times I see friction between users, and insults thrown around.
Maybe I shouldn't have come back here

Oh you missed the biggest clown of them all. He was recently pruned.

Yep, a few trolls have wandered in into our den. Please don't feed them.

It's definitely a draining experience when you don't get much autonomy in your feed, not with the official devRant apps anyway. There is a new player: skyRant, a multi-app where you get to filter out posts by keywords and block users. Recently, it has integrated read access via open APIs to the dRBB and dRCC, two unofficially fresh subcommunities for anyone from devRant people to those who are remotely relating to IT.

Check out a magazine for devRant people, dR Bulletin Board: https://kbin.melroy.org/m/drbboard

Rules for dRBB are WIP, but it already has a posting guide and a way to reach people beyond the confines of magazine (Fediverse magic).

You can also keep in touch with our cozy chat, dR Community Channel: https://matrix.to//...

Have a whale of time!

It's because of me. I hate for a living, and now everyone does too.

Fuck you
