This thread has really opened my eyes to how much the world hates react developers, I am one.

Unrealistic timelines, implementing what should be backend logic in frontend, there's a bunch of ways SPA's tend to be a trap. Was react a bad idea? Can anyone point to a single well made react app?

I don't hate React developers. I hate developers who build consumer facing software and use top of the line hardware and networks to test it while being ignorant to the fact that most of their users will be using their products on 8+ year old consumer grade hardware over spotty 3G

And then there's the devs and PMs that have an irrational fear of the back button -- enough so that they never ever use it on their SPA.
