I've used both context with hooks and react + redux, it depends on your application.

for simple applications, it is an overkill to use redux on an app that does some API calls hence it doesn't make sense to use redux (you can read Dan Abramov "You might not need redux" )

as for a large scale application, it will become really tedious to do it in context and hooks while it will be less of a hassle to deal with in redux.

That said, it depends on the project along with the team that will handle the codebase so good luck.
