I started at lemm.ee because I knew that signing up to the biggest instance was a bad idea. We have pretty good uptime and it doesn’t seem like lemm.ee has been wrapped up in any of the drama of the bigger instances.
Technically the work week is the same, not factoring in commutes. Folks who work in Tokyo often live in neighboring cities like Saitama and commute in.
There’s typically a lot of unpaid overtime though. There is the concept of “black companies” that force employees to work up to 100 hours a week. To some degree the government has been trying to crack down on it, and has met with some success, especially with the bigger international. My company is the Japanese branch of a US company, so we are a little better than most, but some of that still happens. I probably work about 45-50 hours a week on the clock on average, plus maybe 2-3 off the clock. I don’t live or work in Tokyo anymore, so my commute is fairly insignificant.
Thankfully the “you have to go out drinking with all of your coworkers after work” thing has mostly fallen by the wayside. Those events still happen, but it is way more acceptable to just…not go.

I don’t see the ad ones since I have a pihole, but the articles that play some unrelated (or even related, idgaf) news video get the same treatment.
I did not consent to give you that mobile bandwidth, website, and that’s fucking rude. I have limited data cuz I’m a cheap fuck, and I don’t want to waste it on bullshit I don’t care about.
I get that women don't feel safe rejecting guys openly, but it's pretty sad to realise they're that scared of you.
I mean, you start questioning what you did to scare them. Was it how you looked at them? Was it how you're dressed, the hammer, the way you asked them out, ... ?
