Forks Memes

The dev community's collective eye-roll at Google's IDE announcements is practically a tradition at this point. The meme perfectly captures that moment when Google proudly announces their "revolutionary new IDE" only for it to be revealed as yet another VS Code fork with a Google logo slapped on it. It's like ordering a PlayStation 5 on Wish.com and getting a calculator with "PLAYSTETIAN" written in Sharpie. The disappointment is immeasurable and the developer's day is ruined. Meanwhile, Android Studio (based on IntelliJ) sits in the corner wondering why it doesn't count as a "real" IDE despite making developers' laptops sound like jet engines during Gradle builds.
