There are no alternatives that are 3x better than react. That’s the minimum it will take to change the ecosystem default. React is good enough for most applications.

Is that slowing innovation? Vercel’s rsc push is definitely headwinds. But IDK, I see lots of interesting libraries around state mgmt & local-first primitive. I’d like to see more focus on SSG and islands architecture. I think bun 1.3 (bake) will be a healthy alternative to next. Ultimately the basic work of building frontends will become more componentized, so it’d be cool to see more interoperability with web component standards.

RSC is React’s take on SSG and islands architecture (but deeply composable rather than shallowly).

		That makes sense. Too bad it was developed in partnership with Vercel. Deep composability seems to serve their needs—it's not a solution the ecosystem was asking for, at least from my perspective.
