Hacker News is a bunch of older grumpy folks that want to keep using jQuery. Also some had a bad time with classic redux patterns that were a terrible atrocity - but also not reacts fault, however they have a strong association with each other. Modern react w/ modern state management patterns is a joy to use.

- ncann 2y agoWhat is considered "modern state management" these days?
- terandle 2y agoIf building a SSR site with nextjs use react server components and react context If building a SPA site with vite use tanstack/react-query and react context. There are other great libraries like zustand and jotai that can make sense in certain kinds of more complex applications.
