I think he have a good point, you shouldn't be switching frontend tech all the time. Focus on making a good product.
> If your product is still around in 5 years, you’re doing great and you should feel successful. But guess what? Whatever framework you choose will be obsolete in 5 years.
However I feel like this point isn't entirely correct. According to StateOfJs [1] React have been the most used frontend library for the last 8 years (which I think is how long the survey have been done). React Hooks which is the modern way of writing React components have been around for 7 years (since 2018).
React is definitely going to be around in 5 years, and most likely still going to be the most used frontend library. I also don't think Vue is going away in the next 5 years (Angular might however, they are loosing usage numbers year after year).
So really I think there is an argument to be made that you should just use React and move on.
