People seem to really have bought into the capitalist version of open source where software is still a product that requires support and marketing and a roadmap and exists to serve a user community separate and apart from the project.

But a whole lot of open source is really just a sharing economy. It’s devs doing something they found useful and deciding to share it rather than hoard it. Those devs don’t owe anyone extra labor just because they chose to share.

There *are* good reasons to rewrite in some new technology, sometimes. But not often. And almost *never* to deliver poorer performance at higher cost.

"We're rewriting (a large, successful frontend) in React for better maintainability" is gibberish.

How did the successful system succeed? People maintained it!

How will we know if your new system is more maintainable? It will need to live as long as the old one, which means this sort of statement immediately fails Hitchen's Razor.

What folks peddling this *mean* to say is "I would prefer to write code in this style".

This is not a business goal. It's not even a hiring strategy.

Gibberish.
