Of the several dozen people I know who've used Angular and React, I know only one that would prefer Angular. Also the only one that would use Angular over Vue with experience in both.
That's just absurd - I have no love for React, but I can't imagine why anybody would adopt Angular now.
why? because you don't like it? Angular 2+ is the perfect transition for most of the developers who are used to do Desktop or Backend development and want to jump to front end stuff. In the enterprise, Angular 2+ is loved over any other framework. Is the best one? who cares.
Quite the opposite is happening from what I'm seeing. More people seem to move away from React towards Angular, but that's just my anecdotal observation.
