On really big frontend apps, redux with 4 files becomes the easiest part of the day.

It may be verbose, but it’s the one thing that all the other devs won’t be implementing in some weird, proprietary way.

Redux vs. jank proprietary solution aren't the only options. For instance, a lot of what people use Redux for is fetching and storing API data, or managing cross-component state. A combination of react-query[1] and React context does the same in a much more developer-friendly (IMO) way. Again, not advocating for anything, just important to know what the options are.
