I mean don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Vue is perfect, it has its share of annoyances that I hope get resolved, mostly around poor typescript experience with things like props and events for example. But for your average day-to-day Vue experience, it is in my opinion so much more productive than React, and importantly for the less skilled/knowledgeable members of the team it's so much harder to fuck up than React is. And as I said in my original comment, the codebase at work I maintain is a monstrosity, but because of Vue's patterns it's also easier to deal with and fix than the equivalent fucked up React version would be.

I'd recommend giving it, and especially Svelte, a try, especially with Options API in Vue (but CompAPI is nice too). It's really clear early on how simple it is, despite it paradoxically having more to it than React does (like the event/prop system)
