My experience was similar. I'd wound down a startup and as a solo developer could no longer afford to do react + a backend. So I tried HTMX, then turbo (which introduced me to morph and push based re-fetch). Finally moved to datastar because I could drop alpine and it has best in class morph, signals and SSE support. Immediate mode over the network is amazing DX.

Makes multiplayer out of the box over large datasets trivial. See these demos if you don't believe me [1][2] (open them in multiple tabs and have fun)
