I don't think anyone really has strong opinions about JS on the frontend. It seems relatively fit for purpose there.

Most contention I have seen is around attempting to apply it outside the browser. That path only seems to lead to misery.

But js backend has been even more stable with express being the defacto standard since the beginning...

Express isn't a framework though, maybe a "micro-framework". The nearest competitor to real frameworks like ASP.NET or Spring is Nest.js and it's definitely not got the same longevity as those stalwarts.
