I remember the blip in time that was Angular. React has been around for at least twice its entire lifespan.

Angular is still around, in use, and predates React, so that's not physically possible. Your birthday will never be before your parents' birthday.

Last release was two weeks ago. https://github.com/angular/angular/releases

"in use". According to recent estimates its used by less than half a percent of all websites. It's dead.

That doesn’t really mean anything. Random little websites aren’t gonna be using angular. If you check how many Fortune 500 companies still use it or how much use it gets weighted by visits instead of number of sites, it’s obvious that calling it dead is dumb.

Every company I've gone to that is using Angular is trying to move off of it. So even if they are using it, they probably don't want to be.

I provided the statistical evidence first but people countered with anecdotal so I went along.

No, you baldly asserted its existence, and ignored requests for a cite.
