I really do hope we hear from him. I find it nice that he has communicated with so many of us in this thread and I hope he learns that people are a little concerned.

Last I saw, he moved back to the UK and was struggling to find a job. The sudden, unexpected lack of communication is certainly concerning.

I k ew about the UK move, but had no idea about the job. I agree that the sudden cutoff is strange indeed.

He shared a lot about his life on here and I worry he set himself up for failure moving to the UK. Based on what he’s said, he had a condition where he no longer wanted to eat, and then stopped working for a long time because of that. He seemed to expect that finding a job was going to be easy moving to a new country, but that’s not typically the case, especially after having not worked in years.
After moving, he talked a lot about finding a job, which had me wondering what changed. While he wasn’t working, he was spending 12+ hours on Lemmy every day, with like well over a hundred posts/comments per day, and constantly talking about not being able to work. Going from that mindset to desperately trying to find a job in a foreign country seems like a mindfuck.

On the other hand, maybe he got a job and thus no longer has time to comment here.

Jesus, 12+ hours a day… That is not healthy.
I hope he’s doing okay…

That’s awful. I hope he found something.
Moving and getting a job is difficult because other countries are likely to prioritize their own citizens over transplants.
