Are you insinuating that it’s unimaginable that someone would boycott React because Facebook?

>"But I won't b/c Facebook." Do I understand correctly that you also personally boycott React?

I do. Is that surprising, though? Given the variety of tools/frameworks to build interactive web stuff, there isn't a single thing React offers that cannot be found elsewhere.

I work on the backend so I have a de facto boycott. On the front end I'd probably be forced to use it until something better came along.

I do not boycott React because of Facebook. It's because its inferiority.

Inferiority to what? I hate Facebook as much as the next self respecting Netizen, but I still use React at work because it's just the best tool for the job. I'd be happy to hear some arguments to the contrary.

Ever looked at https://svelte.dev ?

React is kind of the best one right now. I wonder if Apple’s new React-ish thing will prove to be an improvement and be ported to JS.

I did (and do).
