That's basically the whole reason an entire instance popped up dedicated to the topic (db0) AND its main community is the 10th largest in the lemmyverse.

The main mods and a whole lot of people came here.

This is one of the success stories of a major sub migrating here.

Your neighbor telling you that you left your car's window open. Or you have a leakage/broken pipe/your roof is on fire/something is wrong that is advised to be taken care sooner rather than later. There can be legit reasons why people are trying to warn you in your home who don't know your online handles.

Exactly. I see an insane amount of job postings for my particular field in IT and people are changing jobs left and right in my circle. Which is also anecdotal, so there is that.

It cannot notify you, you have to check it manually, but: I use DaRemote on my phone to periodically check my bare metal.

The whole thing has degrees. I very much like to help my mother to update her browser. I really don't want to help choosing a printer to my cousin's second brother's wife AND install it during Christmas when we are home and I want to just chill with my close family.

Yeah. The problem is that even inside IT I cannot really change because I'll be the junior immediately and they'll offer half my current salary in a new place. The more applies to a complete switch. I have a mortgage, a child, a car, some expensive hobbies, and some goes to savings. I have a certain lifestyle. I simply cannot afford to lose any of my current income.

But I really hope some day I'll have enough in savings to make the switch.
