The problem is more with us than them.
We lap up all the open source and ideas that the FAANGs of the world put out and presume they are awesome because...it is hard to get hired there? People've heard of them? They pay a lot?
It's all political bullshit instead of actually doing the hard work of evaluating the idea and implementation.

I fucking hate all of these stupid frameworks with the burning passion of a dying star. We know how to build websites, we know how to build software. I have never learned these stupid frameworks and I have no intention of doing so, if you want a website, I'll build you a great damn website and no maybe it won't be web scale or able to handle sixty quadrillion connections, but it'll work, it'll be on time, it'll be under budget and you won't need a comp-sci graduate with 12 years of industry experience if you want to change what color the fucking buttons are.
