freelancing is just a quick buck for me for survival ...
i am a web developer & graphic designer this is my job ...so yeah also from web development point market is dead ...
this is my view and no one can tell me otherwise
Web Design is dead do to fact people are moving to mobile apps ,and now there is AI software that makes websites and social networks allow you to make your own page etc like facebook pages
Web Hosting will be dead soon do to fact people move to AWS,DigitalOcean,Google Cloud or they go decentralized IPFS etc....
PHP / MYSQL,Wordpress is dead Node.JS , REACT, React Native killed it ... how in the hell can i tell people that node.js is not php/mysql and that they need to pay more for this services ....they don't get it
To do AI,trading platform,casinos costs money and time ...not anyone can afford this projects ...so until a client comes you got to wait a long long time
Python,OpenCV,TensorFlow etc same as AI --- money and time ...until client comes is going to take a long long time ....
Graphic Design ---> stupid contests killed it ...
Crypto is dead also do to fact now most cryptos are considered investments not currency , quick get rich schemes etc
Mobile is dead do to fact people exect you to develop apps like indians for 20 bucks ... not going to happen ...
Now only thing that is left is stupid tasks that only indians and chinese do it for cheap ...
So yeah market is dead ... only a indian or a chinese or a third world country person can say IT is booming
Only thing that works in IT is doing military software... and i don't want to help assholes kill children with airstrikes...
