I hear you, however I still see alum from my bootcamp getting hired as devs. There's a comment on here than literally says OP will not get a job, it's just not true and not helpful.

We have some Codesmith and Launch School data.
Codesmith: 2021 grads -> 80% in 6 months, 2022 -> 70% in 6 months, 2023 -> 40% in 6 months, 2024 -> unknown but I estimate (not fact) 25% in 6 months
Launch School: 2021 grads -> 95% in 6 months, 2022 -> 88% in 6 months, 2023 -> 75% in 6 months, 2024 -> \~50-60% in 6 months.
Clearly some people are getting jobs, and you can argue Launch School is still 'more likely than not' getting a job.
It's like going to the hottest restaurant in town from two years ago that was always fully booked. Now you go and the staff all turned over, quality degrading, no one is there, and you are showing up as if it's the best restaurant in town.
Maybe it's still your favorite restaurant, but you have to acknowledge the party has moved on.
