That’s the joke

It’s implying js isn’t a programming language because web stuff isn’t real programming

Web stuff is like 99% of all programming across the world, but okay.

You kinda forget that for each front end you see theres at least 4 times more backend to support it.

Also there are ton of non fron facing software.

Anyway its not really a competition. No one will be offended if you are wrong or not.

The back-end functionality is still web functionality. Just because a user doesn’t see all the server stuff doesn’t mean it’s not necessary to support a website. There are billions of websites across the world, and they almost all use some combination of back-end, front-end, database, and server code.

Not even close.

Most software out there is not consumer facing (there is a huge amount of custom stuff inside companies of all sizes) and even in the consumer space most software nowadays resides in … smartphones.

Unless, of course, you count HTML (literally a Markup Language, so data formatting for display not code) as programming, in which case I’ll leave you to enjoy your fantasy world.
