Whats with the insults? I can get preferring one platform over another, but insulting people is just lame.

The React and Redux developers are incredibly good at what they do - they've also spent a lot of time putting out material, books, video courses, blog posts, talks help everybody else understand the new paradigm they've created

They can't be that stupid when a lot of modern javascript framework components are either direct clones of, or influenced by, their work

The JS ecosystem is like the baskin robbins of st. Which is mind-blowing because JS has gotten so much better and browsers have gotten so much better in the past 10 years. Yet the apps people are creating today are worse that the st people were creating with IE8 and jQuery.

I am hardly the only one who has recognized this as a problem. I see an article from a major dev on the same topic on a regular basis here.

Pointing out that people can make crap isn't an argument that supports your assertion that the developers of a tool are stupid.

Can you list off any tools that you like where there aren't any people using them to make crap? Does the fact that some people produce junk undermine your success using a tool? Or is it actually inevitable that people will use a tool to produce garbage?

So I'm not understanding your point.
