I'm no longer going to be a moderator for now. My parting words of wisdom.
Hey everyone,
After a lot of thought, I am stepping down as moderator of this subreddit. I’ve been part of this community for about 3.5 years now, and became a moderator in February 2024.
I originally accepted the role to help keep discussions productive, balanced, and grounded in real experience. I’ve always valued the thoughtful, nuanced conversations that happen here. Ones that look at both the pros and cons of different paths into tech for different people. That’s what drew me to this subreddit in the first place, and what’s made it worth being part of for so long.
The coding bootcamp space has changed a lot over these past few years. The highs, the lows, and everything in between. Through it all, this subreddit has remained a place where people can help each other navigate big decisions, while still reflecting the reality before us.
For now, I think the best way to support the community is to step back and leave room for the community to figure out what's next.
My parting wisdom: express your disagreement with integrity, but try to find at least the smallest piece of common ground in the end.
See you around!
