  • The decline in reputable advertisers on X has made the platform more reliant on less reputable ad buyers.

    $25 an hour is sadly not too good for any job in the US these days. $50k doesn’t go that far anymore.

      Define “the US” because 25 an hour is living a life of luxury in much of the US that’s not a major city

            $52k before taxes, about $41k after. It’s an ok wage a lot of places but I defniitely wouldn’t call it a “life of luxury” anywhere in the U.S. and I’m from one of the LCOL places in the U.S., the midwest.

            You definitely won’t starve but you’re also not going to retire early.
