Yeah some unsolicated hot takes in no particular order 1. React is better than everything that came before it and I haven't seen anything do it better 2. Hooks are genius 3. If you've never done frontend on a moderately large app, you probably underestimate frontend engineering

it’s always funny to me when people try to paint react as some kind of “big company” propaganda. it was like one person’s wild idea and then there was at most ~5 people maintaining it for years. people HATED it when fb open sourced it. the only reason it won is because the model was actually good

IIRC something about too many screens being kept in memory? I remember Samuel talking about it, I'm hoping that fix gets released soon

hmm, I was still experiencing that behavior yesterday then (while writing that reply, in fact) I still get noticeable lag (especially in the post composer) in some cases I'll test it out some more; any way I can help profile or diagnose those kinds of issues? I'm on Firefox
