He ended up on React because it just works and doesn't change all the time. Now both my React and .NET times are some way behind me, but I'd definitely say it's the other way around..
It's changed a LOT over the years though... it's just kind of glossed over at this point... the move to hooks and quasi-functional components was a massive paradigm shift, but most saw it as a raw improvement. I personally think server components are still a bit of a mess and am actively avoiding them for now... they're improving but I think it's a waste of server resources most of the time.
