For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Creator of nodejs? Fucking dipshit loser who lowered my quality of life. Lemmy does not use nodejs.

Computer programming is one long struggle session among the nerdiest people you ever know, not this pompous Zionist level delusions of self grandeur.

Lemmy uses javascript package managment with a tool (pnpm) that would not exist without nodejs. And as bad as javascript package management is, it could be worse. Just look at the python package management ecosystem.

I don't think much of the node ecosystem, but darkmode's point is correct even though the backend doesn't run in a node interpreter.

None of this takes away anything from shitting on this particular clown though.

Only tangentially related, but I recommend reading this post from a cool technologist I like. There's plenty to critique in the world of software without falling into the well-worn rut of the flame war patterns laid down by the brogrammers that stole this profession from the women that started it.
