According to on of the biggest frontend developer surveys, The State of JavaScript 2018 [1], Angular is the leading framework that people don't want to use again after having tried it. So it's not merely HN criticism, this is a very common theme and having used all popular big name fronted frameworks myself extensively, I can also see why many people feel that way. Not gonna steer the discussion there, though, just c…

That survey is biased, because it makes Angular == Angular 2+ == AngularJS. I used Angular 5 on two projects last year and was quite happy with the experience.

While this is a very personal opinion, the main problems that I have with Angular are only increased with newer versions. I used to really like Angular 1.x, from there on, the required amount of scaffolding etc has only increased.

I'm sure you can however find someone who feels just the opposite way.

All in all I don't think this affects the results too much though. For example Vue is also in one big bucket with 1.x still being a thing. Angular isn't the only one who's had a fair share of changes over time.
