'Moving Out of Bengaluru Was Best Decision': Techie Leaves City For Hyderabad, X Post Triggers Internet

A

woman techie’s post on X has gone viral after she claimed that “moving out of Bengaluru was the best decision” she made in 2025. Her remarks have reignited a heated debate online, with netizens weighing in on the long-standing quality-of-life discussion surrounding India’s IT capital.In her post, the tech professional wrote, “Moving out of Bengaluru was the best decision I made in 2025. No more – potholes on road, absurd travelling time for short distances, waiting hours to get cab booked, insane traffic, hard water, low quality food & healthcare, expensive cost of living. Life has become so much calmer, happier and healthier in Hyderabad that I have lately forgotten to use social media.”

The post quickly drew mixed reactions, with many users resonating with her experience, while others criticised her comments.One user wrote, “This hits hard. Sometimes growth isn’t about a new job or city – it’s about choosing peace over chaos. Glad you chose a life that feels lighter.”Another commented, “Totally get this. Bengaluru has opportunities, but daily life can be exhausting. Peace, shorter travel, and better routines matter a lot.”A third user expressed support while adding a critical observation, writing, “Yes, people should move to Hyderabad. Also, people in Hyderabad love Hindi, unlike in Bengaluru.”However, not all responses were supportive. The post also attracted sarcastic and negative remarks, with one user saying, “Very good. I hope all of the immigrants follow your example. Good for you and good for Bengaluru.” Another bluntly added, “Please. Don’t come back.”As reactions continued to pour in, the conversation remained sharply divided, highlighting the ongoing debate over migration, urban stress, and quality of life in India’s major tech hubs.
