I can access them and I'm in the EU...

By not available what do you mean?

Have confidence in yourself and make a decision. Sounds to me like you already know what you need to do.

Came here to make the same comment :D

No extensions installed. Literally just downloaded firefox.

I'm on windows 7, the new version seems to keep spawning a process which grinds my machine to a halt.

I've had to open task manager twice now to kill it. Only downloaded it 10 minutes ago.

As a Catholic this is news to me. I like the Pope, thought he was good. In fact I haven't heard any other Catholics I know criticize him.

I feel this article is trying to "Stir up a storm" with sensational language. There is little behind this in my opinion.

"I Quit Facebook", do you want a gold star?

I have built applications using React and most recently Vue2.

Both are very very similar and if you are familiar with one you will be able to pick up the other quite easily.

In regards to webpages both are capable of doing the same things and fit the same uses cases.

That said however if I was to start a greenfield application today, I would choose React. The reason for this is that react is better known, it is easier to find solutions for, and it has more mature guidelines for things like project structure and best practices.

Vue is good competition for React and it will certainly help keep it on it's toes. However in regards to longevity, I feel React will be around a lot longer than Vue. React has the full support of facebook and is being used by other major vendors. Vue is also used by some big sites, however it has no official backing that I know of and is maintained by a "Benevolent dictator for life".

In a year or two I predict that I will see another article with a title along the lines of "Switching From React To <insert new hotness here>". It is very unlikely in my opinion that I will see a "Switching From Vue To <insert new hotness here>" article.

Isn't that what the internet is for?
