As someone with significant production experience in both this is heavily biased but also at least once totally completely false:

> React Hooks made it even worse. Now it’s overly restrictive, and it doesn’t even allow Typescript to work.

TypeScript works beautifully with hooks.

I'll give it one thing though: IMO redux is totally unnecessary.

We've been removing redux, rewriting to plain react for a while already and no one complains. Why? As far as I can see because everything we used redux for is better solved by composing views and services thoughtfully.
