If I had to guess, it has a mature ecosystem, it is still actively developed, and it has already been "battle tested" by various companies. Angular is a "boring" choice, and some people prefer to stick with boring solutions than exciting, new solutions. > To me it feels like Angular is slowly dying See https://2022.stateofjs.com/en-US/libraries/front-end-framewo... and select "Usage". If you want to trust the results of this survey, Angular is the second most used front-end framework. Unfortuantely there are no statistics for 2023 yet.

Usually Angular tends to be used in projects where the developers have no say in what tech stack gets used anyway, other than switching jobs.
