I have been a lone programmer for a few years. Whenever, I'm doing bug fixes I dive deeper into "how someone else would approach this". It is actually quite easy to keep improving on your own. I read books on refactoring, clean architecture, etc. as part of my daily routine. The time not spent debating with another dev is spent learning. I guess as a lone dev it is easier to do no self-improvement and keep apps chugging along until something terrible happens.
