Unpopular opinion here: the more I use Vue, the more I realize that it started off doing things differently because it thought it was smarter than more established frameworks. Over time, you're seeing it copy a lot ideas from other systems because they're actually hard earned lessons. Vue is the manifestation of the frontend hype cycle. There's no reason to use it over something like React which is much better supported

I started using Vue back in 2015 and I agree. It's sort of a middle ground between React and Svelte with too many ways to do the same thing.

Imo the best use case for Vue is as a jQuery no build replacement. Preact is also another good option for this.

if to replace jquery, I will use alpine.js instead, which, is a much simpler vuejs

Agree, used it for about half a year at a previous job. It tries to copy everything from everywhere and creates too many ways to do the same thing. The ecosystem is a lot smaller and many times I ended up on issue comments or readmes in chinese, which din't make it any easier. Also I got pretty pissed off with the 2 -> 3 transition, not as easy as they claim on big projects with real business pressure like to stop development for weeks during migration. Also Next.js is incredibly better (and better managed) than Nuxt. I'm never using it again.

How does the Vue 2/Vue 3 change factor into your opinion? Making things more consistent or something else?
