I first tried to learn react in 2015. And I gave up after failing to control webpack. I googled other options and found vue.vue worked and made sense to me. Last year, I participated in a hackathon and needed a GUI interface. So, I picked html, css and js. I took a look at current state of react (react is the most popular js framework). I didn’t like what I saw. There are many different ways to do same thing, the recommended way hooks, also happened to be most error prone, and hard to learn. Apparently, it also necessitates Eslint plug-in for catching common hooks error(validation of dependency array). To top it, vue/svelte do not have the entire class of issue at all. I was somewhat familiar with vue 1, so picked vue. I needed a bit of refresh. With Vue docs, vue devtools, and some grit, I was able to get a working GUI and complete my project. So, at least from my experience, some people use Vue for pragmatic reasons. Perhaps if you were to give others the benefit of doubt, you might find that they too are trying to be pragmatic
