Unfortunately developers cannot be blamed. Most customers give unrealistic deadlines that you can only meet if you use a framework. Convincing them to wait a little bit more time to do it right does not work, they will just hire somebody else. I am working for a customer who opted out from a properly working, fast website with a Go backend in favor of Wordpress, because Wordpress happens to have a WYSIWYG editor. So we comply and install an enormous pile of insecure bloat that loads for eternity... just so the customer can change colors and move blocks around the landing page. It sucks, but having no food on your table sucks more.
