Nobody really cared when factory jobs were replaced, or food processing, or farming, or any number of waves of "menial", so called "low skill" labor jobs.
There was an arrogance that those people deserved it because they couldn't upgrade themselves.
Nobody will feel sorry for software devs, who have been privileged enough to have had high respect and pay for quite a long time.
İt may be sad but it's just the case that the only thing different this time is the fact that's its "knowledge work" that's being replaced, and the smart people now find themselves in the position where the common man has found themselves time and time again.
İ do feel sorry for devs as overall they are quite a good group of people,
As opposed to bankers and brokers and lawyers who I personally am praying they get replaces asap, unfortunately the only thing protecting them at the moment are the regulatory moats.
People will simple have to find some new work, it sucks but some of us have been dealing with not being wanted by corpo-world our whole lives despite our skills, and we are still here.
You will all be fine.
Much love to all who are going through this.
