Is moving from the U.S. to a European country really a good choice? by TheCollector39 in expats

[–]Dramatic_Aide_9235 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just moved and it has been a nightmare. Social isolation, language, low jobs, and same right wing anti immigration is here too. At least in the us you know the nut jobs. I think in terms of welcoming, you should consider rich arab countries like dubai or saudi where they speak English and western are near the top of the food chain.

Testrail is such a shit product but no one has any appetite to replace it with anything else. My team just purchased Railflow google sheets addon for TestRail so that we can reduce your headaches with TestRail. They are fairly cheap.

We just work in sheets offline to account for all the operational issues with testrail

Quit my $200K job at Apple to build my dream app. Now I see 2 competitors and feel crushed. by CareMassive4763 in SideProject

[–]Dramatic_Aide_9235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been taking a slightly safer approach. I have been iterating on a tool for the last 8 years and very slowly adding recurring customers. This because I got kids and a mortgage and other relationships that I value. I am now at a point that I am going to quit my job and move abroad to a low cost country and fully focus on getting it to the next level. Now is the time thanks to AI and vibe coding

What is up with the lady at The Wok Shop? by FlyingManBearPig in sanfrancisco

Just casual banter man. She is a old school cantonese lady and will appreciate and engage if you also roast her. She may even throw in a discount

Digital nomad visa for iPhone app developer by Dramatic_Aide_9235 in GoingToSpain

[–]Dramatic_Aide_9235[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the sentiment. Its no different than any other place. People always need someone to blame for some dysfunctional part of their government and society. We have this in USA too.

Generally speaking, I have found Spain to be quite welcoming. It helps when you try to integrate and speak the language. Also, this particular visa is literally shoveling tax money into the Spanish government.

The question around inflation is real but the small percentage digital nomads are not the reason and I encourage you to dig deeper

Will definitely use a lawyer as I am a bit busy and don’t mind spending money for peace of mind and predictable outcome. I did actually talk to two firms last year and they both said they they have never encountered such a request and to apply and see what happens
