You just described my experience with MOBA games like League of Legends and Dota. Around 15 years ago there were only about 50-60 playable characters. Nowadays there are more than 100 and more items and customizations.
As for shooters this is the same. Too many weapons classes and subclasses, maps, game modes eventually divide and distract the playerbase from the core essence of the game.
I think this is one of the reasons that you still see Counter Strike still around.
I am a season 1 veteran, and even though I'd like to keep playing League, I only want to play some games per week at best
But without keeping up with the constant changes you can't play well, you lose matchups because with this and that change now Renekton loses to Camille lvl 7 even though it used to be the opposite just weeks before.
I now play only chess for this reason, I need an online game that I can master through my life without having to keep up with weekly meta changes
I began doing AngularJS and have been doing Angular 2 for a while, as another commenter said: there are jobs still out there.
In my experience I get more Angular & Vue offers than C# and React. For what is worth I'm convinced that across the industry React jobs wages are lower. Who knows, I could be closed in my own bubble but am pretty sure the pool of react devs is bigger and this might be the reason.
Dense housing is great until you're the first one to build in your block and then someone slaps a few 50 story buildings near you and your city hall doesn't give a damn about water usage and sewage.

My only advice is "if it ain't broke don't fix it". And if you're going to improve something, make sure it's something small and local, ideally further from the "core logic" of the business.
But Elon says Twitter (also known as X) has never been more alive and engaging in its history... This makes me wonder if advertisers are choosing other platforms or if they're being conservative with their ad budgets
Anecdote, but as a twitter user I see plenty of engaging conversations (and a lot of bots too, unfortunately). The quality of ads is absolutely horrible though.
Another thing is that you need to click around the chat area just before the break ends (and you need to monitor when the break ends on that 3rd party site) so the chess.com server won't throw you out of the tournament for inactivity :)
>>I think I heard a streamer say it was for kicking out the cheaters
I can't see how it can possibly help. Maybe he meant something else?
