Yeah, I do that actually, though I keep a "serious" profile where there's little activity and another one where I can just do whatever so I engage a lot more with other projects and make some experiments for myself, so it also ends up being the most active, but I don't show it, maybe I should?

In my experience interviewers look very pleased when I show them what I made, but they don't seem to dig into it much most of the time, so I don't know how important they really find it.
I'll definitely try to put more emphasis on those anyway, so they can see a good showcase.

A personal website that highlights your best work

That sounds interesting, I'll definitely try that, thanks!

Just a heads up, you replied multiple times to this. If the client you're using doesn't submit immediately, that just means it's not doing error handling properly and not disabling submit buttons while the request is in flight. You've actually submitted once for each time you pressed the button

Omg haha, sorry about that! I believe the server was having problems just at that moment, since I couldn't access lemmy.world anymore, I guess they ended up being sent through after the outage (was I the only one experiencing it?)

Looks like it wasn't just you, a bunch of large instances just had an outage
