Angular team member here. I'm curious what's the source of your data that Angular is a distant third? I understand there are a lot of data points to consider.

  Not a distant third in terms of usage, but how simple it is to use. I'd think Vue is probably the distant third in how much it's used, but it's impossible to truly know these things. As for my judgement of modern Angular as complex, there's a few things I'd like to point out: - separation of CSS, JS, and templating into separate files. This makes it harder for the mind to keep everything in place rather than just scrolling - defining routes in a global file but also in modules. - providers, services, modules, etc To be fair, Angular is so much more than React and Vue, which just parse templates and add some features. I feel like I'm not spouting a hot take, I feel like it's earned. If Angular wants to seem more approachable, the team has a way to go.
