This is my impression as well. The Facebook employees I see on Twitter seem like super-smart people, but unfortunately they also seem to have a degree of arrogance and aggressiveness about how their tech is superior to everything else, which they often express by trash-talking the "competition".
In fact, a lot of the Flow / React / Yarn, etc. community seems vaguely cult-like, with a cabal of Facebook/ex-Facebook employees as its leaders, and an implicit (or explicit) contempt for anyone too stupid to recognise their righteousness. That alone makes uncomfortable enough to avoid using any of these projects when I have the option not to.
