• Hey Guest,

    We wanted to share a quick update with the community.

    Our public expense ledger is now live, allowing anyone to see how donations are used to support the ongoing operation of the site.

    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

    Donate via cryptocurrency:

    Bitcoin (BTC):
    Ethereum (ETH):
    Monero (XMR):

Maybe im just pathetic, but each time i try to improve and fail i feel humiliated, i get a little bit more convinced that i cannot improve and everything gets harder. It feels like it doesnt matter how self aware i become, how hard i try or how much help i receive, if i try to improve again and fail, this feeling will get worse. Why isnt giving up the right choice?

Experimentation can be a useful strategy, but it almost always is defined by numerous "failures" as one slowly identifies things that do work. A key element is to not to keep repeating one thing that does not work, but to try alteration or something different.

The older I become, the more I realise that is how most things in life work. We tend to see good results but not the trial and error that led to them. Please, be more compassionate towards yourself. In the grand scheme of things, what matters is that eventually you make it, not how fast - unless you are a first responder in an ambulance or a fire engine crew, of course. :)
