 Burnout is real, and was almost detrimental to @pixelfed A few weeks ago I was near my breaking point Trying to ship the mobile app, Groups, Sup, PubKit and Loops simultaneously Thankfully I was able to recognize this and so I slowed down, took time off and eliminated all expectations regarding self imposed deadlines! Now I can focus on what I do best: coding Sometimes you have to admit you can't do it all at once, and that's okay! Us devs need to take care of ourselves, so we can help u 8 comments
 @dansup @pixelfed very good you recognize this up front! I'm always surprised how much you are able to achieve as a single developer. Let alone across even all those projects simultaneously. That is also not feasible long term. I myself are also coding every day, more than 9 hours per day. And often also weekends. Plus I have a full time job on top of the open source projects.  I feel that! Sometimes time management is really hard in technology because the needs of technology to be made, moved, maintained or updated will frequently take precedence over our own schedule.  |
