Interesting that signals are coming back hard - Elm had and removed signals due to the learning curve and complexity. With solidjs I pretty immediately ran into the gotchas of signals. I like that reactivity is explicit rather than implicit in svelte 5 - implicit reactivity makes debugging stale views pretty unintuitive.
