Live View is SO much better it’s not even close. It’s faster, more reliable, easier to use, way less weird gotchas.

Since you left Laravel about two years ago you only used LiveWire v1, correct?

I haven't used it myself but apparently v3 solved plenty of weird gotchas.

The last Laravel project I used was using Livewire V2.

Not all of the problems were strictly "Livewire" problems, but also just the limitations of PHP. Having to send the state back and forward and rehydrate the state on the server on every request is just slow no matter what you do. Live View has an active process for every connected user that maintains state so you only have to send tiny little diff's back and forward.

Do LiveWire responses get so big that the size becomes an issue?

Haven't used either LiveWire or LiveViews seriously. Honestly trying to understand what you're saying.

I was under the impression LiveWire only sent the data for the component being updated so realistically the main issue is latency (just as with LiveViews).

I mean, sending 0.1kB vs 1kB is 10x worse but in practice this doesn't seem like it would have a real impact in UX for the majority of use cases.
