Is this a parody? It must be right? "Meteor is awesome! But after 3 years, it's starting to show it's age." Edit: Reading more into it, this is just a starter kit and not a replacement for Meteor. You lose everything that made Meteor insanely popular, for what exactly? RethinkDB?

Makes a point of Meteor's age and then proceeds to say that they're using 0.10 node with a bit about not upgrading anytime soon. Seems legit.
Isn't that under their list of complaints about Meteor?

#14Replacing one monolithic structure with another one because the component parts aren't right? Just skip the monolith part and use the components you want.

#15One thing I'm concerned with in general with stacks like this is their use in mobile stuff - even React+React Router+Redux+redux-form adds a fair bit to a payload, even before you start developing an app. As nice as it is to use, for mobile I roll my own.

#16As someone who works in JS day in day out, I'm becoming less and less sure the entire ecosystem isn't an elaborate parody. Replacing one monolithic structure with another one because the component parts aren't right? Just skip the monolith part and use the components you want.
That's what he did. Anybody is free to use it or not...
I'm starting to think a part of the javascript fatigue is caused by people complaining.
