I love that this place is so solution oriented.

Post a rant anywhere else and you get people telling you "there there", but here you'll get 5 different ways to stop the issue (even if they're all retarded).

Yes, this is a very nice place! I also think most people are quite skilled. Reason: this page is not the first link on the internet. Probably you found it by searching for an impossible problem and found a rant about having that impossible problem too.

The level at devRant is way different than facebook / reddit.

@retoor huh no I literally googled "place for devs to rant"

@antigermgerm You know, i gonna ask it to users.

@retoor I heard it mentioned in a random devs YouTube video and figured I'd have a look

Hmm, I thought that most people here would tell you to fuck off and do your homework yourself 😂

@Lensflare most rants here aren't about software. Usually people.

and devs still have too much learned helplessness for my tastes!

@lungdart I mostly post tech related but not really rants. I'm just flexing stuff. Wish that more people did that. I'm interested in peoples prive projects. I had a nice node library (a clone of the great python dataset library) written and wanted to show it on redit node js channel. Directly deleted. Wtf. How so you may not showcase your stuff. I don't do it to make money and it was a proven concept in other language. It worked directly the same and was nice tested and such. Now someone else got marked leader on that part.

I do ofc want to see my stuff being used but i don't know how or where to promote.

@retoor I think it's interesting to see what others are doing cuz then you get your own ideas

but i do find it annoying if they are just doing it for money. I wanna see the craaaft

*says this, only does things for the money now and shares nothing*

@jestdotty I like creative things. For example, tsoding made a C parser in PHP. Completely useless but that such stuff get's my attention. Or even better, he made a compiled language in Python! How sick is that, a low level language made with Python.. So cool. The benefit of easy Python with the benefit of low level as end result. He bootstrapped the code. Genius.

@retoor could make a curated magazine website thing with links to stuff like that

@jestdotty would be great but I have no idea how to get initial users. I mean, if even a good looking site and good working like these even doesn't attract much people anymore.. What's the way to get people these days?

@retoor lol idk, ask a marketer

I met one once. he grew a discord server to 300 people who didn't know each other in like a week. I later inherited it. I never asked. guy was like 19 and his family owned a cannabis franchise in Vancouver. he knew them secretz

@jestdotty the marketing of drugs isn't that hard tbh, that goes automatically. I know a dealer that has to move because he made too much customers in his own neighborhood. Business went to good :P But i'm like karma. Of course if you sell so much, some of them will end up bad news for you. The stuff he sells is very dangerous.

@retoor WELL I was giving background of skillset he inherited from his family

he wasn't selling drugs on the internet. his dad owned some huge dispensary. more into growing than selling

the discord server I joined cuz of a message on Reddit but I don't know if that's all he did. point is he knew what he was doing. he even knew how to write the message. I ignored all the other reddit messages I ever got but not his

@jestdotty yeah, it's a talent.
