I'll look it up, thanks :)

Regarding error handling: that's a valid point. From my conversations with @DHH, I understand that a set of debugging tools is on the short term roadmap. Even if that sounds rather understandable to me, for a nascent open source project, to be shipped without that kind of tooling at first.

Regarding network, from my understanding payload is never a problem when using Hotwire's magic :)

But your answer highlights exactly what's wrong about the current situation : you use React because there's nothing else that seems to answer your needs. Not because you love it or need to code everything in Javascript on the front-end. Hopefully, an alternative is created to solve that problem, and maybe that's Hotwire.

Tumblr SEO is catastrophic. I had two tumblr blogs for a few weeks, they never got into Google before 3rd page. I created a wordpress blog in two days I was number One...

Good job, and OK, it looks good, but:

a. it's on tumblr so SEO will be crap or non existent, b. it loads using JS (as bjourne pointed out), so posts will be invisible to Search Engines.

You should try, somehow, to integrate it with wordpress.
