It would be interesting to see where this doesn't happen, you can't just update stuff without considering breaking changes and new bugs in new updates


Difference is that you only have to take your lunch break for it to happen in web dev. By the time you get back to work the following day the framework you're using is deprecated. At least with other platforms there tends to be a bit more stability.


Web libraries don't update more or less quickly than any other platform. The "issue" with web is the pace at which new frameworks are released but at this point even React is over ten years old. It's not that bad. Things are more stable than they used to be and new concepts are quickly adopted by each framework so you aren't forced to switch to something new, see for instance signals.
