Is React no longer a Facebook/Meta project?

I can objectively prove that React devs themselves have at the very least changed how they understand hooks but more likely have been making it up as they’ve gone along. The best example is one of the more problematic hooks, useEffect. Here

The internet is still slow and expensive for huge swathes of the world. React is still not a better option for them. The truth is that React was very good and probably would have remained pretty good to great even today if the original form

It seems to me that the author is observing that in the past you would have sub-cultures based on lived experiences (preppy…New England prep school, goth…alienated teenagers, etc) that would develop an aesthetic, whereas today the aesthetic

NYC having the same housing stock as it did in 2000 despite having more than a million more people, is what killed anything. Not gentrification which is at best a description of one of the many effects of high housing costs.

For the sake of argument lets take as given that the Mac was unacceptably insecure (John Hodgman smirks at Justin Long “I knew it!”) until the iOS security model was applied. It’s also not clear that the EU requires the PWA engine to also b

The bigger issue is that Firefox hasn’t moved beyond what the browser market is right now. Another way to say that is what browser capability does Firefox have that Chrome lacks. I remember that pre-Chrome Firefox was leaps and bounds ahead
