Nothing, but it's not a programming language

But the meme says developer, not programmer.. wouldn't that be ok then?

The first step to being a developer seems to be learning how to put down other devs :(

What is it actually then?
-
It's a markup language. In the simplest explanation, a programming language describes a process (what does the thing do) while a markup language describes a structure (how is the thing supposed to be displayed). There's more to it than that, but someone else can get into deeper if they want, it's beyond me lol

A markup language does not define how something is to be displayed, that's what a styling language is for (usually CSS). A markup language semantically defines what certain parts of the created document are.

Lol that's fair, but since those words in that combination barely even make sense to me I tried to dumb it down more and ended up being wrong 😂
I'm the idiot who searches stack for code and copies and pastes it into the project so no one should listen to me anyway.

I knew it was a markup language, but didn't know the diff between the two since I'm not a programmer. Thanks

Psshaw. I programmed my Myspace page with that language: checkmate.
