Welcome to web development, where change has been the only constant since—checks notes—the early 90s!
My way of coping with the appearance of yet another new-and-hyped thing, is to not complain and resist, nor to try to immediately learn the thing, but rather the much easier task of learning the why of the thing. Equipped with this knowledge, I can grok the JS ecosystem as a whole, and make better choices when it's time to choose a tool.
I do agree it's super exciting to see Sebastian McKenzie launch out with something new. I think I understand the why of this, and wish him every success!
