> React has become the Java of late 90’s to mid 2000’s.

Not comparable.

Java may not have had big releases during this time but there were patches and support. Java 8 had numerous versions (>400). You can get paid support from Sun/Oracle. In terms of frameworks Spring was constantly upgraded and supported.

React has none of these. Older React versions rarely get upgraded and just look at the amount of minor/patch releases React gets these days. It's almost as though Meta no longer cares. Earlier (<16) React was constantly updated. Nowadays it's just to peddle Vercel.
