Hello! I think it's odd that Solid is left out of the list. If you're fairly comparing modern frameworks on speed, bundle size and memory, Solid outperforms Svelte on many (well actually most) of these key indicators despite being the smallest in downloads and use.
It would be fine if you were only discussing Svelte's qualities but half the article is focusing on comparing other frameworks. It seems a bit unjust to leave one of the options out. Your readers would likely want a fair comparison of the landscape.
Svelte however is a great option for writing frameworks let's just be accurate with our analysis and facts! Aside from that, I did enjoy this article immensely. Thank you for writing it.
I'm trying to decide which framework to use for new projects and I've compared Svelte and Solid. At first Solid seemed the best choice but when trying to make a POC I noticed that Solid has not yet much of a community and I'm really missing supporting packages that are mature enough. E.g. a UI lib, a translations lib.
Here is an overview of available packages: solidjs.com/ecosystem
It seems like a lot, but when you look into it, most of them seem unfinished and there aren't many developers on the project.
Svelte exists 5 years now (I think) and has a bigger community with quite a lot of helpful libraries in a more or less finished state.
Here is an overview of available packages: sveltesociety.dev/components
Therefore, at this moment, Svelte seems the obvious choice for us.
(I also looked at RiotJS but same argument; unfortunately it has even less supporting libs than Solid although it exists since 2015!)

Thank you for your feedback!
I'll make the edit and add solid to our comparison.
