The best place to store it is more than one place. No product can replace this essential procedure.

Piggybacking off this, I wouldn't just ask a direct manager whether he would vouch for you, I'd also ask for feedback on areas needing improvement too. You don't have to go into your next job with that same blind spot. Imagine being in a job interview and when they ask you about your "weak areas" you can respond, "I talked with my previous supervisor about this exact issue!" For the last half decade I've made a habit of asking for corrective feedback and taking performance reviews seriously. It's like the opposite of burning a bridge! My current and previous boss are happy to vouch for me!

Upvoted for mentioning EEE. Meta has been really active in facilitating progress in the opensource community lately with their work on LLAMA, so I'm not surprised to hear they are involved elsewhere.

Just move your community to Lemmy or Kbin. It's not that hard.

No, it is that hard.

  1. You have hundreds/thousands of community members accustomed to a certain user experience that have to start that learning all over again when they move platforms.
  2. You have teams of moderators that have to learn a new set of tools for a new platform.
  3. Less content and inferior experience for everyone until there's headway made on 1 & 2.

Anyone whose worked on a team that had a management shakeup can appreciate this. Anyone who has a friend that refuses to migrate to windows 11 can appreciate this.

this. It was funny but it made things more fringe than they needed to be. Much easier to tell my coworker about powerwashingPics...
