For now I am assuming nothing. I just ask for examples of user friendly sites made with react.

  That's an observation. And nobody came up with a counterexample yet.

    Either the question is disingenuous, or you just don't understand that the choice of UI framework (such as React) has no significant impact on the visual design of a site or app. There are caveats, because certain paradigms can make implementing certain designs more challenging, but for the most part they are unrelated.

      Now you are assuming he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The choice of framework can certainly affect performance, especially for UI interactions (which is the case with reddit), and might encourage patterns (for example, async loading everything) that can have significant impact on the user experience.

We made greatbigstory.com with React. It's not the best website around, but you should have seen it before we got our grubby mitts on it.

  FYI, you're using the development build of React in production. Switching to prod version for your deployed site should yield some performance gains.

Instagram, Twitter's mobile site (mobile.twitter.com/home), React's own documentation page, Facebook itself, Wolfram Alpha, CoinBase, WordPress, CodeAcademy, Atlassian, http://builtwithreact.io/ http://builtwithreact.io/ thousands of other sites. What a weird and lazy comment. UX is completely orthogonal to the tech driving it except where performance is concerned.
