If this is not a good fit for the community let me know.

Edit: for people who can't see hashtags, this is programming humor about a website (where people mainly only care about how things appear from the perspective of the end-user).

Found on this reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/comics/comments/4dh04q/perspective_oc/

I would say frontend is harder than backend (if not more tedious). State management is a PITA, you have to learn X frameworks that do the same thing, and git gud with CSS.
