I think I'll be taking a step back from React/Next.js for the foreseeable future. I feel fortunate in that, for most of my projects, I can make architectural decisions such as this. Things took a turn with hooks (I have a feeling that's the general consensus, too). The nail in the coffin (at least for me) was React Server Components. I gotta admit that its been liberating working outside the javascript/react realm. Using Go + HTMX + [insert tool here] has been a fairly easy transition. Is it a 1:1 replacement? No. Does it solve most of my use cases whilst providing a better developer experience? Absolutely. I'm not trying to hate on React here. I just think its time to stop and ask ourselves "is this REALLY the best idea/tool for xyz?".
