I have a serious question for all'a youz tech folks out there that have been burned out by Big Tech and the corpo wageslave game that is "software development":

When you decided that you were no longer interested in doing corpo software development, what area, industry, or career did you move into instead?

I've decided that I no longer want to work in the tech industry anymore; I just don't agree with 99% of it at this point, and that 1% is proving to be ridiculously hard to find. So once you decided that you were done with corpo dev, where did you go and what did you choose?

Basically, I need some inspiration of what I can do next for my "second act" because I've been unable to figure out a path for myself. I need some ideas of what careers I can parlay my decades of software/biz experience into that will be more beneficial to society. High salary holds no interest for me at this point; it's more about the fulfillment of the work I do that matters.

And for the record, the Software Engineering Manager jump doesn't seem to be working. I've gotten exactly 0 responses to any of those types of jobs to which I have applied.

Boosts and replies welcome!
