I was so excited when I found out about r/programmerhumor, but was quickly disappointed at the quality of the memes or a lack there of. I feel most of the post have nothing to do with programming and some that do are mostly 'java bad', 'js bad', 'exit vim', etc. It's like people who post there have no programming experience whatsoever.

Thank you for this comment! I am actually in a similar situation right now, took a break from college and working on myself, learning about programming and trying hard to improve my english. Sometimes it just kinda feels pointless, like why am i even doing this and theres a plethora of self doubt and self hatred. But your comment kinda made me feel a bit more motivated, so thank you for that :)
