Funny enough, I probably did more software engineering as a web dev than I did as a software engineer at some companies.

In the UK, at least, the only difference typically between a web developer and a software engineer is £15-20k in salary. Frankly, we're all software engineers...

What are dev/engineer salaries like in the UK? Been considering places to move to...

Varies heavily dependent on industry, but typically less than US devs. Also if you live outside London it's going to be a lot less.

You average non-junior dev will probably make about 50-60k £ in london but about 25-35k £ outside london.

Senior developer can vary heavily. in london I've seen 60-120k depending on language and industry.

Holy shit, that's nothing outside of London. At that point be a restaurant server.

One thing in the US that has been encouraging is the very lowest earners are getting big jumps in pay, while people like devs are stagnating
