makes me wondering maybe I was in a sterile information vacuum. I used to think Angular naturally protects me from all this BS mediocre react projects because of its ’enterpriseness‘ and ‘the choice for serious projects’. Thank you for the note, I’ll take this into account

Make sure you're generalising your experience and not advertising yourself as an angular dev. Many jobs expect you to take 6 months to a year to fully get up to speed anyway in my experience.

I was doing exactly opposite (Angular-only) but now I see that maybe times when there were plenty of Angular positions with often more interesting projects are gone

Yeah. Around 2019 most companies I interviewed for started telling me they're rewriting their Angular projects to React. Before that there was a good number of Angular projects, but I'm seeing only React since then, occasionally some Angular maintenance when it's not worth it to rewrite (so you don't really want to work there usually).

thanks for your insight
