I don't know ... I've heard sentiments similar to this a lot recently: "Where are the good old times of geocities", something along those lines.
I'm not saying that React and Webpack are the end-all-be-all, but it would be sort of sad if we'd be coding web sites or web apps in the same way we did 30 years ago. My point is, even when using React or other JS frameworks it's still "web" and manipulating the DOM, just using a different syntax, and nobody is forcing anyone to use CSS-in-JS. It's just that we have way more options nowadays.
Yes, lots of people are forcing other people to use CSS in JS. I am forced to use it at work.
And it's not about "doing things the same way." Even without React, we would not be doing things the same way as 30 years ago. HTML had changed. CSS has changed. JavaScript has changed. None of them existed in 1990, by the way.
Haha you're right, 30 years ago none of this existed. The very first website in history was put live on 20 December 1990 by Tim Berners-Lee (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Berners-Lee) so that's less than 30 years ago, and Javascript was nowhere to be seen (not even CSS probably).
Also true that even without React we wouldn't be doing things the same way, all of the standards and APIs have evolved, a lot. My point is that React is just a "tool" to get work done, and ultimately it's just the DOM with markup and CSS, only with a different syntax and some build tools.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
