Someone on Twitter claimed that Svelte 5's runes are basically a nicer (custom) syntax for Solid.js -- is that true? I find the way Solid.js decouples signals from components to be a huge step up from React's state management in terms of abstraction capability and composability.

> Svelte 5's reactivity is powered by signals, which are essentially what Knockout was doing in 2010. More recently, signals have been popularised by Solid and adopted by a multitude of other frameworks.

> We're doing things a bit differently though. In Svelte 5, signals are an under-the-hood implementation detail rather than something you interact with directly.
