If you've been following tech twitter over the years you would be already familiar with tweets like this (A thread 🧵):

We can see a pattern here and a long time ago, I used to do the same thing on twitter for the same exact reason they do(for engagement purposes).

These resources are not something you cannot find on the internet, Anyone who knows how to google can find the same exact resources if they want to learn some new programming language or a framework. If you've been in this field for some time, you might be tired of hearing these same resources again and again.

The reason I hate these tweets is because it gives beginners the false idea that programming is something you can learn by digesting some resources you found online. And Trust me, these content creator themselves haven't tried half of the resources they have mentioned. They give such a false idea of all the tech you need to know and be on top of, they are constantly jumping to the latest thing talking about how it would change everything. Makes you feels so behind when you work a regular job with the same old out of date code. They live in fantasy projects not real world projects. No matter how much I block these "engagement bait tweets", the twitter algorithm pushes these into my feed again 😪.

The Truth is Programming is hard and it will take time and it's ok. I am not here to discourage you in any way. If you want to learn to code, the best thing you can do is, get off twitter and write some code. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.

2 - Respond to other people's threads 🧵 with positivity and encouragement like this:

3 - Most importantly, don't forget to create lists with resources for developers

So, in conclusion, this is what your feed should look like:
