Pretty sure CRA was dead a long time ago already and it's very upsetting how little the React team cares about its users. The unwillingness to act on the CRA being broken, the forceful promotion of a pretty locked-in framework Next.js (which is crap without Vercel, so clearly against the open source spirit) as the de-facto way of doing React (is it really? according to stats I've seen, most uses of React are for SPA's).

I think at work when the next project comes along I'll try and see if we can not do React anymore. I hear good things about Vue.
