> I never understood the appeal of React Router, the simplest library to get rewritten 5+ times, each time forcing their users to learn a new way of doing routing.

Yeah I hate to be negative, but honestly I was a lot less excited about Remix once I found out was react-router team. While serving a useful need and I appreciate their work, using react-router in a large production app (MPA) was series of frustrating updates and rewrites once we needed to update (we did not have luxury of just leaving old code as is). The iterative churn and rethinking of design scared us off from Remix for the time being.
