No need to convince me it's shit. Also how do you end up only knowing Javascript? Who the hell starts out using Javascript of all the languages?
Anyone entering through web development. If you're self taught or did a "coding boot camp", it might be the only language you've used. A lot of places use it for backend stuff now, too
I write back end JS, when I’m not writing back end C#.
It’s totally fine. In fact, Node makes it a great back end language. I find that the infamous quirks of JS fall into two categories - “common enough that you internalize the rules for them” and “edge cases that almost never come up in practice.”
And when you write back ends in JS… you aren’t on the endless new framework treadmill!
