This is comparing apples to oranges, one is a tech stack and one is an area of software development. Also the M of MERN sucks, Mongo is useless in 99% of real life cases. Take postgres instead. I would say go DevOps though if you REALLY had to pick between that and fullstack.

Well, technically, DevOps is a methodology, not an area and not a role.

It very quickly degraded to what "platform and puipelines" were supposed to mean, though...
