Better together: Glassdoor is part of Indeed

We are excited to share that Glassdoor is officially part of Indeed, the world's #1 job site.

What you need to know

- The Glassdoor brand and product you know and love still exists – our services are just now operating under the umbrella of Indeed, Inc. as of July 1, 2026.

- No action is needed from you. Whether you're seeking help in your job search or looking to hire quality candidates, you can continue to use the one login we introduced earlier this year to access Glassdoor and Indeed.

- Glassdoor was founded on the vision of increasing workplace transparency, and transparency thrives when your anonymity is protected. We remain committed to your privacy and anonymity. Anonymous contributions, including reviews, salaries, and community posts, remain anonymous.

This has always been clear as day to me, but I just couldn’t prove it. I used to take naps right after practicing guitar because I believed it would help me learn faster! LOL

I think all affected websites run on google infra somehow, it's not a cloudflare problem .

(I love how we are using abreviated "infra" bcz we can't google how to write the full word)

This reminds me of Bisqwit's text editor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nlNQcKsj74&ab_channel=Bisqw... He has a super mario running on the bar which is so cool! is there a way to bring the pets to vs code bar ? bcz I usually close the side panel when I'm writing to a file and I want pets to be there when I don't have the side panel open. chat, also please let me know if you know any alternative for vim.

How you've managed to communicate effectively with so many people who were using the beta version to craft the final release is beyond me! I downloaded it last night, wrote one line of theme configuration (I picked the batman theme). and For me it just works fine and faster than any other terminal emulator I've ever worked with. Also great with 'less' and 'tmux'. I just switched to 'Ghostty'! so thank you.
