Yeah that marketing I suspect is spearheaded by Angular and potentially some classic SSR solutions like Rails which see React's new interest on the server as threatening. There are meta-frameworks that are gaining increasingly more popularity like Next.js built on React which might be lending to this as well a tiny bit. Marketing solutions to reduce complexity seems to be the latest trend here.
But yes I agree. Redux got oversold initially, beyond what its creators or maintainers ever wanted, and React's dominance is so propagated into this frontend culture it isn't even that it's popular anymore. But that people feel if they aren't working in it their career isn't growing. I've heard the term Resume Driven Development thrown around. Senior devs rarely care about these sort of things but it is a real concern for junior/intermediate level developers since it does really lend to job prospects. It matters to hiring managers since it's easier to find candidates. Really a vicious cycle.
Marko is good in areas React is not. I don't even see this as a head to head sort of thing. It only works that way if you view all web sites/apps as having the same requirements. I have a much steeper climb vs React with my other library Solid. Marko is just really good at a certain niche. That niche just happens to be most Content Sites/Blogs/eCommerce. We're fine leaving Web Apps to React for the most part.
