I was a coder in the 80s and did XP in 1999 and became an early Scrum Master as a developer. Agile has been stolen from developers. The rise of Scrum came at the same time as the rise of the product manager, and the Scrum PO became a PM. From then on in many companies it was not about doing the right thing but getting the most features out of developers, to implement the PO vision, with little say. We became assembly line workers, put to comfort with high salaries.
