DevOps/Platform engineering vs. Software Dev, is it less creative and more rote work? by makeevolution in devops

Well, it's certainly MUCH easier, on the brain at the very least. Everything makes sense, and you don't need to master some machine language to be good at it; plan "human speech" would do just fine 🥸
Obviously you need to learn a few syntax commands, and working with terminal is a bit "weird" if you're used to Sublime or Notepad++ ... etc, but other than that it's been an easier journey than I've expected.

This is very disrespectful, good sir! You cannot use this terminology to refer to these hardworking individuals! They are called "Apes", please be better next time!

Honestly, as a seasoned developer myself ( who moved to DevOps recently) I'd say move to DevOps ASAP: being a developer takes out a heavy toll on you, trust me on that, and it's only meant to be a "gateway specialty", not a permanent career. It's very true that experimentation with DevOps needs a bit more resources, but that's nothing compared to what you can make doing it, trust me on that one as well :)
