You don't have to be "in tech" to do well here. There have been lawyers and school teachers and doctors on the leader board.

I've done tons of blogging over the years trying to find some kind of constructive approach. It gets no traction.

I've mostly moved on from that. Men don't spend all their time examining their belly button in public about their social issues with work. They talk about their work.

I don't know if you want to hear this, but your bio comes off as prickly/activist and I personally wouldn't hire you because I get the impression you'd just use my company or platform as a horse to ride into battle for whatever activist cause is at the front of your mind on any given occasion.

Probably could have worded that better but, y'know

You are looking for employment and networking in a tech bro forum while carrying a 'NGO' persona and tech bros are pretty much the antithesis of NGO people. Culture clash doesn't even begin to cover it.

What's your best-case scenario these days?

Top of the leaderboard?

Recognizable blogging name?

Building yourself a niche of tech, tech adjacent work, tech leadership/marketing work?
