Hooks are a new mechanism that tries to address a bunch of problems that React itself created in the first place. While it does propose an interesting way to approach said problems, it also introduces a whole set of new problems that are probably as bad as the ones it was trying to solve:D

P.S don't hate on me. I love React and all.

No hate here, it's healthy to have PROS and CONS for every language you use, even if you love the language. When we love a technology so much that we ignore it's flaws, we will never improve.
