I started with webpack using create react app, I tried parcel, I tried esbuild. I tried parcel 2. I use esbuild. As a sole developer it takes no thought, and it still lets me do odd things pretty easily - like I have a particular process for dealing with odd cases in mdx files. Not a ringing endorsement or an exhaustive analysis. I'm just happy I don't have to spend time thinking about it. :-)

I am currently using Parcel 2, I like it because I don't have to bother with any configuration. From what I've seen, with esbuild you still have to fiddle with configurations and loaders for specific filetypes? Can I just give it an entry point and let it figure out everything (update production HTML file with bundle links, import external images, target last X browser versions, etc) ?
