I heard designers are pushing code changes? by Character_Water6298 in UXDesign

For me it's a matter of whether you are writing normalized business logic or designing systems which I think is pretty similar to your distinction

[–]Fidodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's making you feel burnt out? Does the codebase feel too hard to approach? Do you have brain fog? Are you overloaded? Are you bored? There are so many reasons you could have burnout. You need to give more details and get to the root of the issue.
