This makes me sad (been there). From Joe Menn at WaPo: "Most of the Washington Post’s tech reporters were laid off today, including me. I have loved my time at the paper, which is where I wanted to work from age 15. I take some consolation in not being among the survivors who will have to work harder with less for fewer readers. On to better things."
@briankrebs Meanwhile Lizzie Johnson has been laid off by WaPo in Kiev, in the middle of winter in a war zone, without electricity, running water, or heat: https://bsky.app/profile/alexip718.com/post/3me2enjr6ss2d
