## Summary

Gergely Orosz says fresh data confirms that native mobile and frontend roles are dying, and that the trend has accelerated since April. He argues that only very experienced developers are getting these jobs, and that engineers need to become more general software engineers with AI skills for career stability. Lenny's Newsletter cites open mobile and front-end engineering job postings nearly halving over the past year.

Safe to assume the only devs getting such jobs are very experienced ones. You need to become a more general software engineer with AI, to have career stability.
