I really like the quote in this post about how simplicity moves the complexity elsewhere. Personally, I share some of the sentiment that the author has. I have working with React since 2016 and while I will still continue to use it for the foreseeable future, I still see glimpses of something better in other frontend frameworks. Maybe this is an illusion, what I've noticed lately is that all framework / library sites make big claims about what they are capable of and the real limitations are only discovered when you actually use them. But a few months ago, I helped out on a Vue project and I can't help but think that it does many things better.
