I hate to engage with toxic tweeting. It does generate some of the right conversations but sadly at the cost of much frustration, confusion and goodwill.
In defense of Google & Chrome team, two things: <thread> https://twitter.com/slightlylate/status/1251668620335214592
(2) First, the stance of Chrome & Google leadership is *not* that the React community is toxic, it's quite the opposite. They understand that to enable high quality apps to be successfully built for the web, the web platform has to collaborate and support the full tool chain ..
(3) this includes frameworks. The defaults have to be improved by investing in frameworks & tooling, there isn't really another viable outcome that hasn't already been tried out eg. making our own framework and driving its adoption didn't really work to achieve desired outcomes.
(4) Secondly, there is a funded project -- an eng team led by me -- literally working on this problem. Staffing speaks louder than tweets :)
(5) Alex has a specific twitter style, but he's actually supportive of any real progress in this space, I believe.

Due to all the above, I personally no longer feel besieged by tweets like this :)
