> My tip: you start by avoiding React altogether. Avoiding the most popular front-end tech (or any tech) is a good tip for those who want to play Finding a Job

  on a flip side, you have an opening for a high 6-figure front end position with an amazing team doing amazing shit - and you see CVs of “React Developers” and you go “uf tough luck, these gals/guys would be PERFECT here except of course we don’t use React” (speaking from personal experiences…)

    I'm saying knowledge of React is a good to have, even when you prefer something else. In the sense, avoiding it is not a good idea - know the enemy.

      In my experience React (only) devs make very shitty everything-else devs, because they try to squeeze the broken React patterns in places where they don't make sense and don't work. And since every single React codebase does its own thing, with its own set of libraries and state management and routing and even CSS management, 2 React devs will try squeezing 2 completely different broken solutions into a Vue codebase where they could've accomplished the same thing with a single `v-model` in a single 20-line component.
