They keep their staff list up to date on their website fairly frequently. I'm going off that.

I have a lot of DMs that are there to protect me in making arguments. I don't think it's cool to share them - even anonymized, because people close to Codesmith leadership would be outed and it would impact a lot of people. I have

I comment a lot about them and I have gotten annoyed every now and then when my tone was not professional, but most of critical comments about Codesmith center on The fact that their website has a giant banner saying from zero to mid-level

FWIW those posts that show up in search are not my posts and I don't have control over that. I don't "post" that much about Codesmith. I comment a lot about them.

This: https://web.archive.org/web/20240418095904/https://www.codes... I paused my recommendation to wait to see if they did what they said they would do. In my opinion they did not, so I then removed my

I'm going to focus on the MODERATION ACCUSATION first since that seems to be the main issue. What moderating r/codingbootcamp actually looks like: I don't own the sub - I report to the owner who asked me to help after I'

Stalking is a serious allegation. If you want to publish your projects everywhere under the sun in public and ask for them to be 'stared on Github', giving people a script to instantly vote 50 claps on Medium, etc... Then I can op

That's not correct. Their closest competitor entirely shut down for example, and the industry is the main factor responsible for their decline. They laid off their Future Code (a completely funded program by the city of NY) overnight w
