    I don’t really understand your comment. I meant the statement in the image.

      The statement is “only developers who have never used them or aren’t skilled with them dislike them or prefer [the primary alternative]”. Is that what you mean could be applied to “literally everything”?

          Okay, so I’m saying that there are lots of languages for which that’s not true, i.e. people who use the language do dislike them.

              I think you might just be misreading the original post. It could be rephrased as: “all developers who dislike TypeScript and Tailwind either haven’t used them or aren’t skilled with them.” If you could say that about anything, it would mean that developers never dislike tools with which they are skilled. I’m saying that’s clearly not the case.

                Ohhhhh

                I’m not agreeing with the person in the image. I’m saying something like “people say that about everything” or “for every language thete is someone in the world who will say that for the language.”

                Not “this is true for every language”

                  So…I’m not sure what that implies about the statement? “Someone probably believes X about Y” isn’t just true for any Y, it’s true for any X.
