I think there is a lot of tribalism in the js community and liking one framework (often the one you use for work) is synonymous with hating the others. Take this survey done where the people who have "heard of Ember and would NOT use it" is completely outsized with the rest of the data. (https://stateofjs.com/2017/front-end/results/)

I've been developing professionally for 15 years and even in that short a time I've had to frequently start fresh in new frameworks or languages as the old ones lost their edge. The concept that someone would all-caps "NOT" use something is hilariously junior to me because the sands _will_ shift and you _will_ one day face the cliff of: my existing skills have no job demand, do I learn new skills or change profession? Harboring tribalism toward frameworks will not help you make the right decision in times like these.
