I work on an app that is half react and half rails templates. Every time something has to change on one of the rails templates it becomes a process of explaining to the project manager that we can't easily make this change which would have been trivial elsewhere because this specific page is using server side rendering.
Its become such a large problem that we have scheduled in a task this year to remove all server side rendering from the app.
Server side rendering almost always means implementing the same feature twice, once on the server so it loads correct, and then a second time on the frontend so it changes as the user modifies it.
