Yeah I have a little personal Svelte app from the v3 days too, basically a simple form site that I use to choose boardgames during dinner parties.

It still works locally, been meaning to update it which I think will be painless as well because it's a dead simple site. No regrets either, I really like Svelte and tried to convert some data visualization apps with it but couldn't win mindshare at the time in these companies.

I haven't look into too much, but what made react easy to adopt was that Facebook would put out codemods to help migration during major transitions. It was easy to justify these version bumps when there was tooling that made these transitions somewhat painless.
