When I look at job postings and see "React" I go "ugh" these days and find myself looking for Angular instead. That's the complete opposite of my thoughts from just two years ago.

I would still rather use something else (instead or React or Angular) but 1) most jobs in my area are asking for one of those, and 2) I'm actually starting to lean towards Angular even for personal projects.

Angular is great these days, and they're making really nice improvements.

Absolutely same. I have been with Angular the whole time and it's only getting better and better.

I hope more teams give it serious consideration as I just am not excited about dealing with React and it's numerous spinoffs.

Have you used it in the last 8 years? Its actually quite a good piece of software.

You should try using it, using react is mad in 2026 for me.
