Have you ever wondered we programmers have so many strong communities.... Stackoverflow, devRant, Reditt, etc...
No other profession has such communities... Why? Why?
Because, we haven't built one for them.... 😂😁61 -
Friend: "What is devRant?"
Me: "A place where programmers tell jokes and complain."
Friend: "Why dont you just do that irl?"
Me: "Because we never test in production"13 -

The worst part about devRant is the inability to explain to non-devs why I'm laughing so hard at something.
This is also the best part.2 -
So I didn't know why I kept seeing rubber ducks on devRant. Apparently, I'm not very good at typing today, either.
The result? I now have to explain why I Googled "rubber dick debugging" at work.6 -
My wife: Stickers?? Why the hell you got stickers, from who?
Me: From devRant, I told you about that cool community of devs some days ago...
She: NEEEEERRRRRD!
I take it as a compliment 😂

- Be a Devrant lurker.
- Only created an account for upvoting.
- Desperately want that cool profile picture
- Need rant for points.
Why is my appreciation through upvotes not enough? -_-9 -
@No-one asked me to make a devRant related waifu but I went "why not if devRant WAS the waifu"
and this was born while waiting for compiling code (again)
24 -
This was just a „you had one job“ moment. I double tapped a rant to give it a ++ and immediately this message appeared. devRant, why do you give me such unnecessary notifications?
7 -
Why I love devRant:
You'll never receive bad or degrading comments.
If I post a picture of my hairy ass here, the comments would be like:
"There are good sides of having excessive hair."13 -
Wondering if the reason why everyone loves devRant so much is because we can actually get likes here.6
-
Anyone knows about this?? Now, i understood why devRant provides us a rubberduck in avatar's desk. 😂🐤
21 -
Devrant is the reason I left Facebook. Why be with those shitty people when you have community of your own kind!9
-
Why I love devRant? Cause it redirects me to my good old browser after clicking on a link instead of open such a f*****g build in shit!5
-
@dfox
just thought about it...
why not devrant rubber duckies?
(this might be proposed in some other comment/rant already, didnt check for it)6 -
I was on Tumblr and I thought I was on devRant so when I was scrolling I kept wondering why everyone kept posting book aesthetic pictures.
Either I spend way to much time on devRant, or I need to sleep.7 -
Closes the devRant app just to open it again 🤦♂️🤦♂️
//Suddenly a thought hits - why the fuck did I closed it in first place?7 -
Devrant black theme is here! Thanks to @Floydian and @Stuxnet for the idea and the tag! You can also grayscale all images, for that late night devrant viewing.

/* secret devRant script */
let joke = "why do Java developers wear glasses? Because they can't C#"
//check if rant was posted recently
if ( !recentRants.find(joke) ) {
postRant(joke)
}4 -
My girlfriend says to me:
"Any other girlfriend would be suspicious why you're smiling and laughing into your phone."
I showed her devRant, she gets ['hip','hip'] 😊 -
Why doesnt devRant have small sticker / camera cover?
I think that would be neat. 10/10 would use.2 -
Just found this piece of code from one of my coworkers:
restMethod() {
try {
// some complicated logic
} catch (WebApplicationException e) {
throw e;
}
}
Why?!
And btw: Hi fellow devRant ppl! 👋6 -
That moment when you double tap tweet in Twitter to like it. 🙃
Why can't more apps be like devRant!3 -
I was lurking on devrant since about a month. Never feel like ranting 'til now.
FUCKING TORRENT THAT STOPS AT 99.8%!!!!! WHY FUCKING SHIT WHY FUCK THIS FUCKING BUG I HATE YOU TORRENT I HATE YOU!!!! 😠😠😠😠 FUCK!9 -
and what a merry christmas it was...
thanks devRant for the small app size!
#!/a/rant
why are apps so big/bloated these days!!?
9 -
I picked up my phone for something important. Devrant was already on the screen, read a rant. Commented. And now I forgot why I’d picked up the phone.5
-
When you want to watch a series before going to bed but first check devrant for notifications: 37.
"ok that is doable"
One hour later "10 left to go".
I keep getting new notifs which I have to reply to again...
Why is devRant so active?26 -
Sometimes I wish devRant had private messaging feature.
Then I see spammers and 12 year old script kiddies around here and I realize why we don't have it.1 -
I believe the next step of devRant development should be open sourcing everything and letting us help with further development.
I'm spending time here, why not help a bit too?5 -
Got bored and threw a wrapper for devRant together and god damn it chromeOS why do you have to add a line to separate the window bar from the main content, would have looked slick!
2 -
Working on a script that shows weather in a notification because why the hell not.
[edit] such compression much wow, thanks devrant
7 -
Why do I ++ like 90% of the rants?
Devrant is HOWSOMEEEEEEE, thank you guys.
BTW, most distraction? Devrant3 -
Just a reminder for anyone that wants to use the devRant API for .NET. I made a C# wrapper that people might find useful: https://github.com/redrails/...
Not sure why it's not on the devRant projects page but feel free to use it and contribute 🙂 🙂7 -
My time in devRant is the time it takes for code to build and deploy. devRant is why I don't improve code performance 😎
-
that moment when a (non dev) colleague, understands how a single character (in the entry point) can break the whole website
next time i'll explain him why websites like devrant exist.. -
When play store literally knows how to kill your time by recommending devRant while you actually are supposed to be studying why you do this to me
1 -
Why the fuck isn't there a DevRant coffee mug in the swag store? I am sick and tired of drinking java from a freakkin' plate.
12 -
Why download xcode9?
You'll have tons of free time to browse devRant
Apparently Apple understood the No Freeze as More Freeze 😒😒😒😒😒2 -
Silly and stupid me.
Woke up.
Check phone. Check devRant.
Saw Trogus's filter update post.
Happy and left a comment.
Went to playstore and update.
Open devRant and use the feature.
Tried to filter only Rants and Questions type.
Happy and went back to sleep again bcz Saturday.
Continue the rest of day with other stuffs.
Use devRant again.
"Huh why the heck is the first post about some random quote?"
"Why the hell is second post meme"
"Why...why...why"
Check filter feature again.
Facepalm.
Silly me and stupid my eyes and useless my brain is not worthy for good and clean UIUX.4 -
We'll finally know when non-devs have found out about devRant when we start getting rants such as "Why can't devs understand that I don't know what a browser is? It's not my fault..." etc etc...
-
For weeks I told my friends about devRant and how cool it is but they were like "meh! 9gag is better" or "I prefer Facebook".
Today I showed them my laptop with the new devRant stickers and suddenly everyone is downloading devRant.
Now I am thinking why did I waste my time.1 -
Why thank you! 😁
Much appreciated! And let me just say while I'm thinking about it, devRant is hands down the best community I've been apart of in a very long time. Keep up the rants!
4 -
Thanks so much for the cool stickers. Why do I have 2 of each though :'). Maybe for my brother who is also on devrant.
5 -
I like devrant because this is the only place where I feel that I'm surrounded by intelligent people, and honestly, I needed this badly.
Why are you here?15 -
!rant
Loving the community here I wish more people I know personally knew about DevRant hence why I just bought myself a stress ball. Hoping that someone at work might notice it!5 -
Just realized Devrant had a FB page... Wonder why I never thought it would have one until now. Anyways yeah, sad there's less than 1k likes. Lets go and like it guys!3
-
I really like DevRant, but why can't an avatar look happy, is it because most developers hate their jobs, because of clients or what not?12
-
Having to explain to non-programmers why devrant uses ++ and -- for invited and down votes....Same as explaining why they named it C++
-
lol I just saw Devrant Wordpress plugin to integrate on website. As per my experience many people here do bitching about things. Why would anyone wants to add those on website
-
[Post marked as: devRant]
I think one of the weak points in the official devRant app is performance. That's probably due to the cross-platform stuff...
You see, if I shutoff 6 out of 8 cores on my CPU and force my GPU to only run at the lowest frequency possible, devRant gets HELLA laggy. However, games like Geometry Dash run just fine. No lag whatsoever.
It's not that bad though, just explains why devRant uses so much battery on some phones. -
DevRant hiding my old rants really rustles my jimmies.
It took me many years to distill all of this pure, unadulterated rage... why would you conceal such a treasure from me?5 -
So this night, I dreamt that my devRant stickers arrived.
Well fuck they didn't lay on my desk when I woke up.
Why is reality like this.3 -
I'll tell all my dev employees to use devrant. Why? Because I'll definitely rant about him/her, so he should do the same about me.1
-
me@devrant:~$ sudo apt-why install gnome
Sorry, unable to find a reason to install gnome.
Try Xfce, Cinnamon or KDE instead5 -
Why @JS96 made devRant UWP in Visual Basic .NET?
Just kidding, but seriously: „when and how did you started your dev carrier?”4 -
Why is DevRant consuming so much power in the background? My Android starts ranting about it every time I leave the app minimized.6
-
So I've been on one of the biggest scouting camps of Europe this weekend reading Devrant a lot... Why is this app so addicting.2
-
Have you ever wondered why programmers have so many strong communities like devRant, StackOverflow, Reddit ect. and no other professions has such communities?
Becoz we haven't built one for them.
😐🤝9 -
I have been trolled, criticized, belittled on Reddit / YouTube, etc, but never on devRant. Anyone care to theorize why?7
-
When you would just check the school timetable for tomorrow, but when you unlock your phone you find devrant to be the active app, and you just scroll through everything, and forget why did you even unlock your phone...
Just devrant things... -
So devRant takes about 4-5 seconds to load after launching it. I have a good internet connection and my phone is fast. Does this happen to you too??4
-
I’m using Devrant sporadically due to my lack of time and I really enjoyed it back in the early days. I see more and more scammers/spammers posting here and I feel like I’m not in the right place to be posting/sharing/ranting.
My question: is someone or more than one person here actually maintaining Devrant ? Why so many scammy accounts here ?8 -
Why didn't I know about devrant when I was working on my motion detecting security system for school... Would have had lots to rant about2
-
I opened devrant with this rant in mind and the first thing i saw is a post about someones boss getting killed...
Fucking hell does someone have good news?
Everywhere i look is pain. Why is this world so cruel!?!?!
Why is there war Why did so many people get killed Why Why Why
My only safe place is while coding, this distracts me from this whole world. I create my own world while coding and dive deep into it. Its one of those things keeping me alive.4 -
(Not a rant)
New to devRant :^)
Tell me the reasons why you started programming.
I want to know since there are so many devs out there..8 -
Arrgh. The web interface for DevRant sucks, so I post using my phone.
Why do I always notice the auto-correct generated mistakes after it's too late to fix them?
Why is there a time limit to edit my posts?2 -
Why must the scrollbar look like its having a seizure whenever I scroll faster than a brisk scroll? Why does it even have to change length at all? Why can't it just be the same length all the time? It happens a bit in the devRant app, but it's even worse in other apps (like the reddit app).2
-
Whenever I see the
We are hiring
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
messages on twitter, I ask myself why they aren't on devrant too3 -
Why do I close devRant on my laptop browser, then proceed to open the devRant app on my phone as if I'm gonna see different content?12
-
What?! I mean what the fuck?! How it become sooo late? Why is devrant eating all my time? Fuck you devRant! I fuck you too!
-
Me: Ok lets make a simple chrome app wrapper for devRant just for the hell of it... Oh i really don't like how there is a split line between the title bar and window content...
*2 Days later"
Me: Fuck it! Let's build a title bar library and allow for devRant theming options...
Why must I do this to myself... -
My left cortex: You have a paper to write @poster983. Put devrant down.
My right cortex: NO! Enjoy yourself. You have a study hall tomorrow. Do it then.
My left cortex: Remember, you already said that about history. Best to do it now!
*mouth makes farting noise*
My Right cortex: COME ON! IT'S HUCKLEBERRY FINN. JUST USE SPARK NOTES! DO IT L A T E R!
My left cortex: fuck you right.
My right cortex: right back at you.
*Snapchat buzzes*
My full brain: OK HALT THE DEVRANTS! THE BOYFRIEND IS TEXTING!
(Notice the recursion here?). This is why I can't ever write papers.
Same thing applies to when I'm programing. I end up spending 2 hours on something that only should have taken me 1.
My left cortex: Stop Ranting!
Help me.
💩

Why install a native app to use devrant on a mobile phone? Your website is not totally broken in a mobile browser. Responsive web is possible in 2020, believe me and give it a try!12
-
Woah, this platform still exists. That's cool, idk why randomly I thought let's check devRant. lol3
-
I wonder why it is possible to like/upvote your own post on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram,...
but not on DevRant...? 🤔8 -
My code doesn't work and I don't know why.
I cleared cache, my code doesn't work, and I still don't know why.
I cleared cache, reloaded vagrant, my code doesn't work, and I still don't know why.
I left my desk, got some coffee, checked devRant, refreshed my browser, my code worked, and I still don't know why!
8 -
I still can't understand why people put 2 stickers of the same thing/product (devRant) on a single item (laptop, etc.).3
-
*opens devrant*
"Day" "WEEK" "Month" "All"
*Clicks Day*
"DAY" "Week" "Month" "All"
*Loads Week rants*
Sigh... -
Another weird property of the devRant API:
For every POST request the url parameters need to be passed in the http body instead of in the URL, like this:
app=3&user_id=42
Wtf why?22 -
So the international shipment I was waiting for and was really excited were not the devrant stickers and was this useless and huge azure poster. I am crying. I was really looking forward to those stickers. What am I even supposed to do with this poster? Also I just realized I did not recieve any confirmation from devrant that I was receiving those stickers so that means I am not getting them. Why god why? @dfox please help me.
1 -
Me: why did I wake up so early in the morning? 🤔
Brain: to poop 💩
Me: damn it ok!
*just finished pooping*
Brain: hey your finished pooping, don't pretend! You're just browsing devRant. Go back to sleep! 😡
Me: oh come on man?
Me: *thinks (well I like devRant and sleep so I will sleep and dream about devRant 😂)*
Me: ok brain, I'll just wash then go back to sleep 🙃6 -
I've gotten to the point devRant is taking free time away from my personal projects... 😢 What should I DO??? Guess it's time to make an effort to cut down on devRant time
¯\_(ツ)_/¯2 -
Deleting 3 weeks worth of work through incorrectly stashing and popping changes. I don't know why it was a good idea to leave my changes untracked.
Please hold me Devrant community.4 -
This and devRant helping me wind down after a 10 hour day.
Why would you arrange a meeting at 5pm and not tell me? I have an hour commute too. :(
5 -
When I read this game's description for done reason it reminded me of g-m-f and LetMeCode... Not sure why... but anyway this dev should be on devRant
3 -
DevRant isnt the right place to use a easy password... Which is why i changed it from 1234 to 123456...13
-
People have been thinking about creating an IRC channel for live ranting. Why not just do it?
Feel free to join #devrant in freenode IRC2 -
I've just recently discovered devrant and every time I open it I think «why didn't I thought of this first». It's so cool!1
-
Was thinking why don't we organize a giant devrant meet up online via video chat or somethong where everyone socializes and meet other users face to face3
-
Why is there no hoodies available for our avatar?
My hoodies are my main torso wearable. I want to be able to show everyone on DevRant of course!7 -
I find it interesting that most of the devRant profiles I look at only put the languages they know in the skills section, not the things they do with those languages.
Why is that?5 -
So uh- DevRant for iOS doesn't let me select text. Why? I want to google all these fancy terms I'm hearing.2
-
Every time I open devRant, I have >0 Notifs. Why am I never notified by Android about this anymore? I used to get one Android notification for each devRant notif in the list. Now, my phone never goes off for any of them and nothing from devRant appears in my android notifications. I did not change my settings. Running latest app version on Android 6.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯7 -
!rant
I don't know why but even though the two are completely different there is some nugget of devRant that reminds me of turntable.fm from back in the day.1 -
Why don't new devrant users have an actual logo of devrant as a profile picture instead of that ugly puke-green background?3
-
Have you ever wondered why the developer part of the tech world is so rich and full of community? Devrant is one example.
Coming from a background of IT and cybersecurity I've never felt this way before. Why the IT and security world isn't as rich?1 -
In Belgium were I live it takes twice as much time to devRant than in France or in the US. You know why?13
-
I am definitely not sean connory.
I wish linkedin recruiters and devs online would stop accusing me of being sean connory.
Why would I..I mean sean connory, who by the way I am definitely NOT...why would I be on devrant anyway?
For the last time, I am not sean connory.6 -
WHAT THE FUCK!
I made a spelling mistake in my previous rant and I can't edit it !!!
Why devRant whhhy!
I can program it if you want, just say the word 😂🤘3 -
Why devRant is not open source?
I know that it has a Github issue tracker with a awful amount issues.
Wouldn't it be better if people could work on the platform to improve it since most of the devRant users are developers.
(Just a random thought i had)11 -
Does anybody have an idea how the height of the scrollbar of the devRant app is determined? It changes while scrolling, and I have not figured out yet why.4
-
Why tf is DevRant not saving my theme settings. I select dark theme and it reset back to the light theme after every new login <.<13
-
Why are collabs dead on devrant? Im desperate to find someone to join my mapping project for 50/50 deal. Where can I find interested person?9
-
Although I'm pretty bummed that devRant doesn't have a clever message instead of a boring plain one, why can't I get my classic stickers? 😢
4 -
Why don't you devRant open a new tab when I click a link?
I don't want to right click to open in a new tab ):6 -
I was wondering why devRant could crash under iOS, so i caught the log:
So it's an internal problem in Titanium?
1 -
Let's have a discussion, devRant style:
Fuck history, git rebase to the rescue! Especially interactive rebase is a power tool. I use it all the time.
At this moment I won't argue why or why not. Let's hear what you have to say! -
Why are devDucks so gnikcuf expensive?! I don't want to pay $14...
(sorry devRant team)
(&& yes, gnikcuf is [bleep] backwards)14 -
Why the limitation to only see 30 +1 posts listed via a profile while using devRant on a desktop @dfox?1
-
Apparently, I am using everything in light theme, from devRant to Atom.
I don't know why but code looks a lot better now.4 -
Why oh why do devRant have this crappy webApp. Ranting about bad Software and code on a such a bad app is like complaining about speed on a rail trolley.6
-
About the devRant podcast... Why they don't have a feed (I know you put it in many "funny places" like Google play, iTunes, but I like to use WeCast to listen to my podcasts...2
-
I recently saw this on devRant and I thought it was a cool idea.
Why don't we start writing code in each comment down here in order to form some C# (or Java) code working? I'll start from:
public class devRant {8 -
So why does the devrant list stays the same all the time 🤷♂️ I read those rants since monday wtf ...3

-
Why devRant site rant icon and right img will shake when I scroll ???
Oh no, it calculates the position and uses padding-top to change it.
9 -
Why don’t social media websites including DevRant have like/share notification disabling?
I only care about replies directed to me, rest is just dopamin inducing trash information. Just give us theoption.19 -
Rant about DevRant on DevRant:
I don't know why DevRand is showing me the Login dialog even if I'm already logged in and the session is persistent?3 -

Hummm, why it's slower to save the image than load the image in devRant?
Because of that, i perfer to take a screenshot to save it....10 -
Hey, I'm back on devRant after a couple months off it! Forgot why I left, probably due to the masses of notifications I get each morning.3
-
Why the hack does the devRant app on iOS crashes nearly every time I want to open the notifications or a rant? The app does this since weeks now. This is very annoying!6
-
Ranting about devRant today:
I was writing this beautiful rant last night, but this morning it's gone. Why you no autosave?????? -
Why When I use devRant API, it works perfectly on insomnia but not in Postman !!
Did anyone faced this?
I wrote js client (React Native) and it's giving same results of Postman3 -
Why devrant icon, background etc. is ":/" ? I mean I feel like it's a little bit miserable lol. Any thoughts on that ? :/7
-
devRant please hear me out. Why use this ":/" instead of this ":)" or this ":D" or, I don't know, some shit like this ":P" maybe. Don't overwrite my feelings man, I love and enjoy coding!
8 -
Anyone care to explain what happened to the devrant podcast channel.. why has there only been 3 episodes in 2 years?1
