According to Stack Overflow Trends, Angular is losing its popularity, while Angular was tremendously popular till 2016, ReactJS is gaining considerably that today they are equal on popularity quotient.

Chart clearly shows AngularJS.

True. The corrected comparison tells a different story.

It does seem to border on the misleading that the graph in the Medium post purports to use the tag "react" which doesn't exist on StackOverflow.

Credibility is further weakened unless you can believe the author not only used a non-existant tag for react ("react" not "reactJS") but used the mismatching tag for angular ("angularJS" instead of "angular")

The full comparison makes it clear the author has a hidden agenda.

Note also the result when you try to add react as a URL hack
