Articles like this will certainly bring out the pro-Typescript people, so this got me thinking. I'd like to hear from people who tried Typescript and found they didn't like it for any number of reasons.

Note I'm not pro or anti myself, I've only just begun playing with it, but would like to hear from all kinds of people.

This reminds me of the idea that seemed to be very popular a couple years ago that everyone can and should become a programmer. Nothing is quite that simple.

While I understand why we don't really see them, I would love to see a much more involved comparison. A reasonably sized app would probably use redux/vuex, routers, async, etc. which changes things dramatically. Even just adding the state managers changes things completely. Then you have things like cost to maintain/upgrade.

I'm in the exact same boat. React never really felt comfortable for me, but Vue clicked immediately. Admittedly, I'm coming from an AngularJS background.

I am not, although you did remind me to try without any extensions enabled again. I can't do a straight comparison as I'm at work now, but my work laptop (2017 vs 2016) is showing improvements. For reference, my work laptop also had high CPU usage on previous releases (even with no extensions), so there's hope yet. Although not being able to use the extensions I normally use would be a deal breaker (blockers and such)

Unfortunately, this doesn't appear to be the case for me. I've been wanting to switch back to FF for some time but just opening a website causes my MBP CPU to go nuts, seems 61 is no different for me.
