Amazon Building its Own Linux-Based OS to Replace Android
(www.omgubuntu.co.uk)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Idk if I'm the only person who thinks this, but I feel like React has gotten worse over the last couple of major versions. Not only does the code look a lot messier when you use their new syntax, but the end result seems unreliable. Facebook is barely even usable now. Their history management is laughable, and it'll drop you out of the site randomly when using the back buttons. I used to think React was really neat, but I'm not a big fan anymore. There's too much re-engineering for problems that were solved decades ago.
Damn....I'm trying to modernize my personal app's UI and I thought react was the shit. What is the recommended framework now?
If you like it, then use it. There's no point in jumping every time some new framework comes out. Most of them don't last. I have used React off and on since it came out, and I personally don't like how the syntax has changed. My personal website is React and doesn't have any browser history issues. Idk what's up with Facebook history management. I guess they just don't care very much because they're too busy trying to gobble up data.
Honestly this. You'll rebuild it in a few years anyways.
If you absolutely want your project to survive after 15 years...
Either web components using vanilla, or hell, just go jquery. Jquery is impossible to kill.

React is having the same problems Angular had, and jQuery had. New ECMAscript features make formerly complex things easier, and JS frameworks adapt.
Lots of solutions. But as more edge cases start to show up, they continue to add more and more little things that shape the language into more different variants.
Many of the changes are pretty good. But New devs will go, "Why are there 7 ways to do this React thing?" And that adds to the noise.
Again, that's not a React problem. It's just coding in general. PHP also had a "damn you ugly" phase. But unlike PHP, I don't think React (and most JS frameworks of today) will continue to be as popular as some hot new JS framework in 2027-2030 sweeps the landscape.
And PHP will still be chugging along. lol. It's weird that React syntax went from being fairly pretty, and structured, to looking like a plate of spaghetti. Usually languages and frameworks go the other direction.
Not at all knocking PHP.
I love how PHP 7 looks, and PHP 8 only continues to improve.
Totally agree. React is going backwards. Vue is so attractive. Heck, I'm even starting to rebuild react apps in Web components because react is getting weird.
