Looking back on 2022 from a developer's perspective, even without talking politics, war, climate, health, and injustice, despite CSS updates and AI progress, it feels like two steps forward, one step back. I used to curse ReactJS and Webpack, but we can have breaking changes everywhere else, like PHP 8 vs. WordPress. Oh yeah, and why do customers still love WordPress so much that we have to mess with this unstable abomination with its half-baked Gutenberg block editor and (full) site editing? And what about "social" media? Well, never mind, after Usenet and Myspace, why did people favour Facebook and Twitter in the first place? Thanks to devRant, there is at least one site where I rant about obscure tech topics from my subjective point of view, using swear words and exaggeration, without getting downvotes. Maybe I am even allowed to say "Mastodon" here? Thanks and merry Chanukka, Jul, X-Mas, Y-Mas, and Z-Mas and a happy new year everybody!

I just noticed Facebook's research website (research.fb.com) is based on WP.
Now i can only imagine their technology stack as NKjnwkjecweccnUJb8iuwdjeninwcjw8jiwcenciciUIUC98ICjiCe(CJeicnI*Cncowkch9ECnjckcowcewcNJKjccjkcbccjkwcjckwecjwecnwe##!!@dcwe
