I can't get over the endless yak-shaving in front-end dev. Fighting with browsers that all do things slightly differently, a terrible programming language, an abused, crufty markup language and a baroque styling language on top of that is not my kind of idea of a good time. Not to even get into the node/bower/grunt/gulp/webpack/babel shitshow compile and build process that it seems to be trending towards. Working on the backend building APIs, optimizing data flows and managing backend services is more fun, and wildly more productive, if less whizz-bang and shiny. Speaking as a 20-something who frequently forgets he's not a forty-something...
