The part of me that cares about my HN karma wants me to refrain from saying that I hope people stop making JavaScript frameworks well before we run out of names. JavaScript is a monstrosity that from a usability standpoint really has made the web worse and not better.
I would love a web without js tracking, scroll bar hijacking, browser back/forward hijacking, delayed modal popups, useless animations that bring my Oneplus 3T to its knees, etc.
I also would love a computing ecosystem where nodejs didn't enable every journeyman web designer to try their hands at bringing all that cruft to the desktop.
I find the UX improves significantly with noscript.
