I'm the primary Redux maintainer. FWIW, `connect` still exists and we have no plans to remove it, but it's also _very_ complicated internally and we honestly don't want people using it today. If I _could_ remove it without breaking user apps I would. `useSelector` is a drastically simpler implementation, better app performance, and smaller bundle size.

I do get what you mean about the conceptual separation, although something about the HOC approach also led to a lot of historical user confusion about "where _are_ my props coming from?".

As for writing the rest of your Redux logic, our modern Redux Toolkit package has addressed the historical concerns about boilerplate and other pain points:
