[Discussion] Context vs Zustand vs Redux: when do you actually need what? #5

Description

@yemisi567
Let's collect real experiences instead of hot takes.

## Questions to discuss
- At what point did plain Context stop being enough for you?
- Has anyone *migrated* between libraries? What forced the move, and was it worth it?
- Server state (React Query / SWR) vs client state, how much "state management" is left once server cache is handled?

## Goal
Once we have enough perspectives in this thread, someone can distill it into an article for `state-management/` (with credit to commenters). Tradeoffs over absolutes, "it depends" answers are welcome, just say what it depends on.
