How about going forward by not focusing on using the latest JavaScript frontend, but fixing the backend issues you clearly have?
Much of this work isn't front-end work and we have a separate team taking care of it.

Can someone explain why someone would choose Vue over React (or one of the clones)? When I looked at the docs for Vue it reminded me of my Backbone days.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yet much easier to do by avoiding a single page app all together.
Is there anything meaningfully different between a site made up of a number of discrete single page apps and one built with Vue?
> For example, the profile page could be potentially very light, and there would be no reason for that if someone is linked directly to the profile page; it should load every single piece of Javascript in our project. There are plenty of ways to do that with single Page apps; it's not a great argument against all single page apps, just poorly designed ones.

But if (like me) you were never quite able to figure out how to use React (especially all the build tooling that's suggested in every tutorial), then Vue is worth a look as it's incredibly simple to get started with and easier to learn.
I find it especially appeals to people coming from a place of familiarity with html and css (whereas react seems to appeal to people with more of a straight-up programming background). YMMV
I also notice that the most shameless abuse of "awesome" seems to come from public-facing software developers, e.g. community managers and the like. It's become some kind of advertisement for a bland, safe, comfortable community where nothing is risked, and competition is frowned upon.
All right, I may have gone a little too wide with that, but AUGH, we need to try way harder to increase our expressive range if we're going to be writing articles that aren't exhausting to read.
The escalating abuse of the word "awesome" is like the overuse of dynamic compression in music. When every expression is fever-pitched, there's little room for interesting expression.
