This sounds like the inevitable slow death of RN to me. Web developers simply moving on to new tech that's better/more common on the web while RN languishes as the massive set of open source libraries required are abandoned

Don't confuse HN bleeding edge hipser tech with the real world. The world of react-alternatives is fragmented and lib-incomplete, React still gets more installed than its most popular rivals combined[1].

I have worked across these frameworks and React is the only one where I find the lib ecosystem satisfiyingly large (and still growing most steadily).
