I’m well aware that lemmy doesn’t use node I just said “like these” bc i was targetting my comment towards ppl that aren’t software devs.
I think it’s uncontroversial, maybe even trite to state that JS tech like node was instrumental in the language’s adoption and the explosion of web apps, electron apps, etc.
I’m sorry for being so curt. The bad vibes I got from that article really bled into me.
Web is huge and nodejs was groundbreaking, but I just feel very miffed that the people who were part of the big push to Web as the de-facto development platform whether they intended to or not are now selling themselves as missionaries for silicon valley, this bubbling optimistic enthusiasm feels so off to me.
