For me in every startup I’ve worked this ended up just being a self selecting group slack DM where we would mock things. We didn’t hate the places but there’s always stuff to have fun with like that. We would just recognize each other and keep adding people.

In my experience this is the same group who is actually fixing things.

There's a lot of toxic positivity in my company. Without the whiners, it would feel like a mental asylum. It's great to know that you're not alone.

But I agree, constant negativity doesn't help.

Toxic positivity, you mean the entire tech industry since 2013 or so?

Blind (a watering hole)?

edit: ehh this is external though

Too toxic to take it seriously

TC or gtfo .... As they say
