I setup (took over and spruced up, to be precise) this community specifically because of the time I’ve spent over the years browsing and relying on reddit.com/r/sysadmin for sources of information on tips/tricks, security exploits & patches, outages, and yes even the ranting about how our jobs all suck. (I like mine, for what it’s worth.)

Come on down, ask questions, post what the sysadmin community needs to know about, or head in to get either sympathy or chastisement about why you haven’t left your job yet. 🤣

Want to be a mod? Let me know!

      Feel free to use this space for networking related posts as well. Not all of us have the fortune of being able to wear a single hat, and I know I’m just as interested in networking news & discussion as anything else in the IT space.

        Cool beans. There’s a TON of overlap I’ve noticed, but it is nice to have vendor specific focused discussions sometimes.

        That and there were a lot less employer rants on the networking sub 🤣

          Yeah I figure no need to discriminate at this point, anyone in the field of administering any IT systems is welcome here. If Lemmy really takes off and sometime down the road there seems a need for it we might establish rules for what’s appropriate to post here vs. other tech subs, but I don’t see the need for that now.
