> but it looks and feels like React Hooks.

I am confused about why this is a positive.

React Hooks are the reason why I want to stop using React. They are confusing and seemingly magical, compared to lifecycle methods that make a ton of sense. While I agree they can make complex things easier, they are also incredibly easy to get wrong, as they are order dependent.

Reading the Solid landing page, what I see is "Solid takes the most confusing part of React, and runs with it."
