> It's not like it's hard to find another job as developer...

In 2025? Haven't you noticed the massive layoffs by the big companies. Check r/cscareerquestions and read the posts from seniors unable to find a job

    Worth mentioning that the IT jobs crisis is mostly an US thing. It's still relatively easy to find a dev job in Poland or many other EU countries. It's worse than before, as in bootcamps are no longer enough, but as a mid+ it's still very easy.

Entry-level jobs? Sure. Senior level and above? You must have been living under the rock for the past year.

Then again, mobile apps are like this tend to be junior work, outsourced to software mills that just burn through juniors cranking out garbage assembled 10% of polyfills and 90% of advertising SDKs. Yes, at this point of your career, you can still say "no" - the company will happily replace you with some other junior, while you replace some other junior somewhere else.

    It's easy to find entry level jobs? Where? I was trying for ages and barely anyone even replied to my applications

      The growth of fake applicants and fake job listings are another issue entirely, but it still is easier to find an entry-level job than senior-level or above.

This is assuming that the developers who did that knew that it was bad and still chose to do it.

What if they didn't know and it's just incompetence?
