"Software developers" is market like no other: 1. Individuals are highly incentivized in their careers to gain more skills, learn on their own time, explore new tools. 2. Employers are highly incentivized to keep devs happy, improve productivity, buy tools that optimize, etc.https://twitter.com/r00k/status/1364697905706258435 …

The “software developer” market has other advantages: 1. Many efficient, low-cost distribution channels. 2. Lots of existing networks (Twitter) and communities (HN, http://Dev.to , Reddit). 3. High salaries create knock-on effects that effect pricing + demand.

Contrary to popular belief, many devs (especially dev managers!) have a low pain tolerance and would much rather pay someone to make things easier, faster, less stressful, etc...https://twitter.com/joshuaanderton/status/1214345595567009793 …

Joshua Anderton @joshuaanderton@taylorotwell talks about having a low pain tolerance when building products for developers. Lots of devs told him that Forge wasn’t a good idea because they could already solve the problem themselves (just takes more time). Millions of $$ later; Convenience ended up being keyPokaż ten wątek2 odpowiedzi 0 podanych dalej 12 polubionychPokaż ten wątek -
Also, today’s devs aren’t the same people who lived through the tech bubble crash of the early 2000s. The demand for devs is going to continue to accelerate. Salaries at FAANG companies are $350k-$500k. The incentives are there for individual devs (and companies) to level up.

Anecdotally, I suspect that devs are funding a big portion of the creator economy (Patreon, private podcasts, Substacks, GitHub sponsors). They have a lot of disposable income, and philosophically like the idea of supporting indie makers. (Any thoughts on this

Just look at how easily people get offended over paid tools that can make their dev experience better. How many prefer spending days on setting up 10 technologies to replicate a $5/mo SaaS and “save money”.
