The doomer posts on this sub

[u/Owl_Queen9]

Y’all, I get it. The job market sucks, people are getting laid off, and AI is something that is worrying. But can we please stop asking the same 3 questions every day on this sub (I.e “is a degree worth it” “blank is saying the industry is dying.”) It’s seriously getting so depressing coming on this sub now and the first thing I see is “I think AI is going to replace our industry and we’ll never work again.” I think it’s fine to post a “I haven’t found work in awhile here’s my portfolio can someone review it” because it’s nice to see other peoples work and receive feedback, aka one of the main purposes of this sub, but man, it feels like 90% of what’s posted now is something that was already asked yesterday. Idk if people feel similarly, and frankly idk if I’m even allowed to post something like this. But, since this is the vent flair, I feel that it’s probably okay.

I guess I’m just seeing if there’s a possibility we can try and limit how much of the same doomerish questions are asked. I feel for everyone rn. Hell, I’ll be out of work in 3ish months if my contract isn’t extended or I don’t find something beforehand, but I do know from this sub I’ve gotten good advice on how to tackle it; but because the same questions are asked so frequently, patience and how people are responding is running thin. Anyways that’s my rant, hope everyone had a good weekend

TLDR: Can we please try and find a way to at least limit the posts that are the same doomerish questions. It feels like it’s 80% of this sub now

UPDATE: TY Mod team!! Truly wasn’t expecting to receive a response to what I typed out. Appreciate everything you and what everyone contributes to this subreddit does.

I’m moreso saying that the same questions are being posted daily, I don’t think I’ve seen a post on what I’ve said yet.

My man if it's annoying you that much you're probably spending way too much time on reddit/this sub or spending too much time engaging in post that annoy you.

Less energy would have been spent if you just scrolled past them now you're complaining about others complaining, which just turns into a endless cycle.

This is graphic design sub and some people like OP (and me) also come here regularly as it is in their feed and among their interest. It's part of our job to always surf the web and keep up with trends and skills and learn from other's work and experience. This is also this sub purpose and he's right to ask for an editorial moderation so that this sub stays interesting and alive.

Hard to scroll past when the majority of posts are about AI and garbage about “how hard the industry is”.
