I hate the way people glorify a simple bug on LinkedIn and make it look like they are cracked.
The request format your frontend was sending wasn't aligned with your backend's validator. You changed one line and went to tell people on Linkedin that you're cracked.

@kopiumdev@Raynerdtech The point being that the trend HAS shifted to new stacks and companies would honestly love to move but in the end it's not worth it. And if big-tech maintains their stack, those technologies will continue to stay relevant no matter how old they are. The word is RELIABILITY
@kopiumdev@Raynerdtech The tech ecosystem is trend-driven. But ask the CTO of any big tech company or big institutions like banks and the likes. Ask the devs on Facebook who literally built react. They'd tell you they still run on old stacks because it costs too much, or is too risky to migrate.
