Yeah, wouldn't want to rewrite the frontend in a new framework. Good thing the SPA frameworks are so stable and solid; when I choose one I will surely be able to use it for a good, oh, 3 to 6 months.

React hooks came out in 2019. That's 6 years ago. And they are still the way to write client components. Unless you're moving everything to server components (which you most likely can't and shouldn't anyways) you would be writing the same react code for 6 years.

This is just intentional ignorance.

We still have Vue 2 apps running strong. Our experimental stuff is on Vue 3, which is backwards compatible with Vue 2 for the most part if you avoided mixins (which even in the Vue 2 days was the common advice).

People who say stuff like this have obviously never actually used modern day FE frameworks, because they have all been very stable for a long while. Yes, APIs change, but that's not unique to JS/frontend, and also nothing really forces you to update with them unless you really need some shiny new feature, and at least IME Vue 3 has been nothing but gold since we got on it.

I agree. My preference is React, but I've got 4 years of Vue experience and so I know Vue is good too, and mature. There are just some people who are anti-framework entirely, and they're never actual professional web developers, but mostly hobbyists or college dabblers, who've never been involved with a large project, or else they'd know how silly their anti-framework attitude is.

This feels sarcastic but in reality ever since react switch to using hooks I’ve largely written the same style of react code for years. You don’t have to live on the edge.
