In the next year developers need to realize normal people do not care about the tech stack or the tools used, there are far too many written thoughts and opinions and not enough polished deployed projects. From an industry standpoint it’s business as usual, acquihires from products that LLMs apparently couldn’t save.

They care - but only for how the tech stack affects the product quality. Show someone a bloated React site on 3G and compare their experience to an SSR competitor.
99% of the US population have access to 4G, caring about 3G is a wasted effort. The point I’m trying to make about tech stack is users don’t care if you used Gemini, ChatGPT or Claude to generate code.

As someone who hasn’t converted to SSR yet. My main reason why I am switching is SEO, the performance increase is a plus though.
