The whole line of Tanstack products is very well made yet poorly designed at the same time. I don't know if it's inherited from React by trying (and succeeding) to be a seamless React experience or if it's part of their own philosophy, but most of the tools make it very easy to mix state everywhere in your app which is just bad.

Really people should just move to Gleam and Lustre or Elm, even if it means I'll have much fewer clients paying good money to untangle state issues...

Not sure about Tanstack DB, but from the second paragraph in the article:

> First Try: PGlite and Electric
