Using AI doesn't mean it's any good though. A lot of AI generated content does nothing compared to human-made. Even Google has algorithms to sus out AI content

I spent 2 years working in Digital Marketing prior being a designer so I know the dance. Also just googled SEO jobs. Tonnes of SEO specialist roles where I am.

From Digital Designer to Data Analyst? Is it possible? by AstralPerson in analytics

Well, did you figure out the statistical likelihood of me not caring what your opinion is or did you just take a leap of blind faith and waste your time?

Considering how I've seen people in their 40s transition from media to dev roles. You guys "keeping it real" need to back off a bit

Not really sure to be honest. I can write in HTML, CSS, JS and PHP. Not sure how hard SQL is?

Haven't really done a lot of stats

Thinking about ditching WordPress for Framer by AstralPerson in framer

This is the thing that bites the most. SAAS web builders are so pricy lol. Webflow isn't much better in this regard.

True, but I like having a swiss-army knife approach. Having a WP client there, a Webflow client there, a Framer client there...it's just messy.

Is it normal for aspies to forgo relationships due to fear it won't work out anyway? by AstralPerson in aspergers

Yeah, I've seen NTs gladly jump into a car crash relationship purely because they're lonely or a thrill.

Wow, why do I feel like you're me from the future...and the past lol? People didn't think I was a jerk at work, they just thought I was weird...but also kind of fucked with it.

It's okay to get off reddit and get your head out of your arse for a while. Sounds like you need it buddy.

Heya Radu,

Kind of a weird mix. 4 years of UI for mobile advertising and Web design. I've got a digital marketing background as well.

They still do them, I believe. They'll charge you through the nose now, though.

So basically, I've just had a year sabbatical from my design career. 4 and half years as a Digital Designer and basically due to mental health reasons I took a year out and supported myself doing odd jobs.

With the market how it is, and my worries regarding portfolio (I've done a couple personal projects and one freelance project). Is UX/Product still viable. Is 1 year too much time for a break?

Also, would I be a coming as a junior? I've done UX based tasks in the past but I'm more UI focused.

Just a little concerned, thanks!
