I still miss what.cd

Isn't there a site called redacted that is meant to replace it? I remember failing the interviews for it.

Yeah, weirdly enough I just found it after remembering how good what.cd was. I have seen that the interview asks about transcoding... so yeah... might have to do some learning 'fore I have a go at an interview. I guess if the bar to entry is high then that is probably a good thing. I think I only got into what.cd because I met someone who had an invite.

I failed the interview because even though I got all the answers correct I had their interview prep page open in another tab and when they gave me the chance to come clean about it I lied instead 😬

You could try Orpheus, I managed to join today. It's even got a what.cd skin so you can pretend you're home again. https://interview.orpheus.network/

Looks great. Thanks.

Oh no! That's good to know though, thank you. I will study a page a day and do the interview in a week or so, this will stress me out no end, I'm sure. 😅
