I'm sorry @nepeckman , it's always sh*tty to be let go, there's no way around it. I've lost two jobs because the startups I was in didn't work out.

In the first case it was quite unexpected because I was hired 3 months before (😅) and they put up a facade of being in great shape (I should have done my due diligence better I guess, for many reasons that became apparent only after the fact), the second time it was expected because the money ran out on us before we could find a feasible business model.

It wasn't great, not life shattering but not great either, after that I became a freelance and I wasn't the biggest fan of startups for some time...

I hope you can find something better. They are not many but there are a few job listings on DEV: dev.to/listings/jobs
