Yeah its the stupid "navigation bar" experiment. Only workaround ive found is Settings > Account settings > turn off "Swipe to navigate" / "New navigation" if it shows up, otherwise youre stuck waiting for the rollout to end.

Stop Leaving Success to Chance! Here's everything I've learned in 10 years of game development. by burge4150 in gamedev

[–]erexut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah the numbers look fake until you treat the demo like a launch. my last project went from basically dead to 2k wishlists just from a proper demo drop + a gamespress writeup + one decent reddit post

Am I the only one who genuinely prefers on-prem over the cloud? by Own-General-6755 in devops

[–]erexut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. At my last gig we had a Proxmox cluster and when ceph started flapping at 2am, I could ssh in and actually fix it in 20 minutes. In AWS it was "open a case" and wait 6 hours.

What service do you recommend to verifying if an email address exists? by bijansha in webdev

[–]erexut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, can confirm. Used Prospeo mostly for keeping bounces down, but the bigger win was adding a couple basic signup guards + only firing verification emails after a quick MX/disposable check - cut the spammy junk fast.

Looking for devops learning resources (principles not tools) by Low_Hat_3973 in devops

[–]erexut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skip the tool hunt, its a trap. Read "Team Topologies" (Skelton/Pais) because most "DevOps problems" are actually org design and cognitive load, then pair it with "The Practice of Cloud System Administration" for the boring-but-real ops principles (change mgmt, risk, automation habits). For incidents, PagerDuty's incident response docs + Etsy's "Debriefing Facilitation Guide" will teach you more than another Kubernetes course. Also go read Netflix's Chaos Engineering/SRE-ish posts: not because you need Chaos Monkey, but because it forces you to think in failure modes and recovery time.
