Hearing your frustration (and seeing that you are someone that did try!!!) ....it's all too familiar to me
I really wish that the people voting would HEAR what it's like to start out here. It was very hard for me in 2016, but I feel it's SO much harder for you newbies now!!!
Without people to come around you from.the beginning...you have so little chance.
And i see that you're a part of a community and still struggling
What does that say about our system?
But...what can we do? Maybe it's the end of the road.. or maybe these changes will shake things up.
I believe that no matter what happens, the system STILL has a very poor view of newbies and does everything in their power to leave them high and dry...
That's not a system that I want to be a part of anymore.
If I stayed, you are the type of person I would come stand beside! ☺️ It was my absolute joy to be a helping hand. But now? I feel i would be giving newbies a false sense of hope.
Maybe I'm wrong.
How wonderful it would be to be wrong about this.
If you do stay..and you do need another helping community, I would highly recommend you meet @shadowspub and join her Ramble discord.
So many good souls in there. She is my mentor and friend and will do her best to encourage you if you're willing to keep trying.
I'll still be around for a few days... Come say hi if you need anything.
