I used Angular pretty heavily before switching to React. At the end of the day, they approach the problem from two different directions, solve issues in two different ways, and end up with two different sets of challenges in terms of what's easy and what's hard in them. I've definitely written React UIs that would be easier in Angular. But I've also crashed Angular performance through the floor trying to wire up a table display with Angular update hooks. Angular makes it easier to hide state-update dependencies in a way that causes really bad thrashing to reach steady state, which I've (anecdotally, generally) found harder to do in React because doing it in React involves writing a lot more code and a lot more cross-state dependencies.
