Yeah... Indeed, our field is pretty prone to weird tribalism and jumping on bandwagons. Still, I dislike that just as much lol

For sure. People find a niche they like and then think that is the solution to any problem. Until, of course, some new shiny tech catches their eye and they try that out (or their favorite clickbait Medium writer comes out with an article about "Why you shouldn't be using ____ anymore in 2023"). Then the love of their life gets thrown to the curb.
