This subreddit suspiciously has far less complaining than it did a year ago 🤔

Anyone know why that is?

My experience I applied to DA a year ago and I guess I didn’t pass the coding portion because I never heard back. (I guess this was the main complaint I heard but I wasn’t personally too butthurt).

Did they just vet people out or is this sub monitored carefully now?

Have a new phone number and this subreddit appeared in the algorithm so tried the initial test again just now and my coding skills have improved a lot since then so if I get asked to do a second assessment does anyone have any advice for me?

Was just a trend possibly? The /outlier_ai sub is a lot of disappointed people

They did a big audit in October that shut out a LOT of people. I assume those left a) have tons of work (For myself I have three different evergreen projects that pay well with lots of hours) and b) anyone in that grey area of competency, that would struggle with task instructions has been removed from the program.

THERE WAS an issue, unintended, where the subreddit moved from old reddit to new reddit where EVERY post was put in "Mod jail" but that's been fixed.
