I think teens do it to feel edgy.
I'm not saying that's the ONLY reason they do it, but they hear about it and see others doing it and it's a case of monkey see, monkey do.
Who is 'him'? When I click the link it goes to Twitter and asks me to log in. I can't tell who you are taking about.
Lol this is the best answer
Yep. It's mind boggling that they still even do this.
The other thing I hate about reviews is when they use the same review page for different SKUs of the same product. So for example you'll be reading a review of what you think is a 2 litre plastic container because that's what you clicked on. The review will say something like 'it's too big for the fridge'. Meanwhile the review was actually for the 5 litre version of the same product. So then you have to scroll through a million reviews to find the relevant ones, with no way to filter them.
Honestly, I wish memes would just fuck off and die. I hate to admit that I do laugh at the odd one, but I would quite happily never see one again.
I don't get why you just don't subscribe to some communities that don't have memes, and just set your feed to view 'subscribed'?
I'm not familiar with that certification, but looking at it, as you say the knowledge gained from it would be tremendously useful.
If you are looking to get into DevOps, I'd probably suggest you do some of the cloud certifications instead (AWS, Azure, GCP). Those will cover everything, from networking to infrastructure to app development on cloud platforms.
The CCNA cert itself would probably be more useful if you want to be a network engineer in a data center. But I would definitely recommend you keep doing the course, if not the exam.
A lot of people I work with don't have low level networking skills, so if you can develop those alongside your appdev skills it would set you apart.
A final word about certifications. When I interview people, I will notice if they have certifications but I don't put much stock in them. I've worked with too many people that have them and are still useless. If you do them, make sure you spend the time to actually learn and understand the material rather than just doing enough to pass the exams, because that's where the real value is.

I thought I was going crazy because I couldn't find this list of websites. Fat lot of good this article is.
I'm still trying to figure it out. I joined feddit.uk just because I'm in the UK. Then I realised most of the communities were about politics and football teams. I read about Beehaw and like the sound of that so joined up there. Then realised that they had defederated from lemmy.world (which I understand and am not complaining about). So I created an account on lemmy.world as well.
I guess the thing to figure out is to find the communities you are interested in, subscribe to them and make sure your instance is federated with whatever instance those communities are part of. Then it doesn't really matter which one you join? If you just want to scroll mindlessly through posts from all of Lemmy, I guess you can just find an instance that is federated with everything and set your filter to 'All' and go nuts.
Yeah kind of. A lot of duplicate material. But that's to be expected I guess. The ratio of tech to non tech stuff is too high, and I hate memes but that's just personal preference.
I just browse 'all' on my local instance every once in a while to see if any new interesting communities have appeared, and then I'll subscribe to them and go back to just browsing 'subscribed'.
I figure eventually I'll discover the best communities that I'm interested in but I'm not expecting it to happen overnight.
