Every time that I hear this from a dev, it turns out that this dev is in the web/js stack.
So here is my sincere advice:
If you really hate what you are doing but you actually want to love it again, change your stack. Try something different.
I’ve switched many times. I wanted to love web but I couldn’t. I started to hate it.
Finally I switched again and found a perfect stack for me which I love. -
@Lensflare lol. Look at his profile desc.

@joewilliams007 I did before writing my comment. It wasn’t a surprise for me.

@Lensflare My first impulse to your post, is shouting out 'how naive! It's about more than just the choice of stack!'... But then i realize, I am on the web stack as well. And then i close mouth.

@horus lol 😂

@okay hey mate, i did it you were right.
Happy ti say that the startup is going great, and my love for work is back 🎉
It's been 6y since i created a devrant account, and went from a college kid to a dev lead, so much changed and i use my old posts as a window to the young me.
I am working my dream job, yet it feels like a nightmare.
The young me would give an arm and a leg for this position, and here i am feeling like this is worthless.
If any of you guys experienced something like this, would love to hear what it took to go back to feeling excited to code.
