In the past few years I think the ‘JavaScript community’ (whoever that is) has done a decent job at dispelling the reputation of ‘silly js devs, making a new framework every other week that you have to learn’.

This React Server Components seems to be a bunch of effort on throwing all that good will down the drain. It seems like they’re really excited about this new API and the react and nextjs teams have just charged forward with whatever this is, without really much consideration or anything else.
