I am not invested in either framework but there are some very clear differences:
- size/complexity: React is a monolith that can't be digested by just skimming a couple small files
- API surface area: less room for major semver bumps
- modularity: React devs seem to fear dependencies
- versioning: React encourages the use of peer dependencies which is truly going to be a nightmare in 2 years with hundreds of UI modules across different conflicting React versions
- no singletons: React can only be required once, otherwise bats will fly out of your computer. This is compounded by the versioning issue.
- style: React uses and encourages a different programming paradigm
