Dev Influencers Without Syntax Highlighting

Text on the meme

i don't trust any "dev influencers" unless they're writing C in a 20 year old IDE with no syntax highlighting

What it means

A social media post jokes that trustworthy developer influencers must write C code in a twenty-year-old IDE without syntax highlighting. The punchline is exaggerated programmer elitism: intentionally using an outdated, uncomfortable setup is presented as proof of authenticity. The post is used as a sarcastic reaction to polished programming influencers and modern developer tools.
