I was just joking don't worry.

Global state is kind of a antipattern in React, excepts for user preferences or authorization it should be use with extreme care. I saw many projects starting with redux for no specific reasons which involve overengineering and maintenance issues.

Not sure what was the debate 😅

That's good, I like jokes as well :)

I agree that you shouldn't start with Redux per se, but if you do some prior analysis then in most cases it's simple to find out whether or not your project will benefit from global state management.

But, what's funny about us having this debate is that we're lending credibility to the author's narrative that Angular is "better" - because, apparently, in the Angular world they don't need to have these kind of debates :)
