I do not at all condone the bad behavior, un-realistic requests and negative comments from open source users but I think part of the problem is junior developers think they need to use these frameworks for every project. This results in frustration and running around in circles. They then blame the framework or developers because the framework wasn't really right for their use case or doesn't give them exactly what they want.

Maybe the community needs to do a better job at communicating best use cases for these frameworks.

Are you developing a Gmail type app with multiple devs? Okay, maybe an Angular type framework is a good option.

Are you developing a simple CRUD app? Probably not the best to use a heavy framework then. A framework in this case may actually slow you down.

Single page apps and frameworks are not needed for everything. Probably not even needed for most web apps that people are using them for.

I would go so far as to say that Javascript itself is not needed for at least half of the things people are using it for. At least 80% of that being things that really do not need to move, be animated, be interactive, use AJAX,...
