I'm very happy the React and Vue projects are headed by people like Evan You and Dan Abramov, not HN commenters. The hostility in these threads is upsetting. There is no best approach and both React and Vue have their worth, if you like them or not.

Every time I see a topic about Vue or React (or practically anything JS related) I see the polar opposite of the disarming friendliness coming from the community leaders on Twitter.

It’s true, that H.N. Commenters guy is a real piece of work.

... But in all seriousness, there is a diversity of viewpoints here. It’s a conversation and people vote up things they find thought provoking. Would you prefer only people who think React and Vue are great post here?

I don't mind people having opinions. I mind people denouncing everything that competes with their personal preference. Note how I said "hostility".

I'm talking about comments like

"God this is horrible. It's ugly. Hard to read."

"ugly piece of code"

"React failed miserably"

"The JS ecosystem is like the baskin robbins of st"

and so on.
