You think the major complicating factor of rolling out e2ee was that they used react?

Given I was able to see the errors directly in the js console, yes. You used to be able to break everyone's state by putting an emoji in a URL.

Of course it's not a "react problem". It's a skill issue created by the reality that React is incredibly difficult to scale in large projects.

If Meta cannot even handle React, what hope is there for the rest of us?
