Tinder, a dating app, has recently updated its Terms of Service. Among minor bureaucratic modifications, one major change aims to battle impersonations. From now on, Tinder will ban web developers who claim to be 'engineers'. While backend- and other types of software developers seem to be unaffected, many believe the ToS will be amended soon to include those as well.

      c# and .net? ewww…

      gimme c, c++, go, rust, ruby, python…
      and umm, no dude, native apps are a lot more powerful than web apps… they are not usurped at all

      there’s more of them, but there’s more scooters than motorcycles…

        Scooters are more efficient, get you where you need to go and cost less to maintain. Your analogy is actually pretty good in that regard.

          yeah and they only get you around the neighborhood, any actual distance and a motorcycle is infinitely better…
          but, it figures you’d miss that, since you’re a dumb ass webdev

            Now you’re throwing ad hominem around. You don’t need to be toxic to communicate your point, web development did at one point have a lot of growing to do and I can admit that there is still plenty of progress to be made. In 2024 however, ignoring the web ecosystem as any type of developer is purely traditionalist elitism.
