My career advice is don't worry so much about the money and instead focus on learning more backend dev. Going from a frontend dev to a full stack dev will result in a huge pay increase over time and will make you more valuable in the market.

Thanks, interesting take. I have seen more specialized positions, but startups do love the more full stack approach, at least in theory. I have some back-end background, which gives me a certain flexibility and ease when dealing with back-end (node, python, PHP - and not professionally a little bit of Rust and Go). Besides that, I work/worked closer to docker and deployment environment which makes them less scary to me than to the regular front-end developer. I will keep that in mind, and look for ways to expand my back-end comfort! Thanks.
