Will react-redux be compatible with the upcoming <Activity> component?

[guillaumebrunerie]

The React team has announced a long time ago that they were working on a special component called <Activity> (called <Offscreen> before), which would hide a part of the React tree in an optimized way.
It might be too early to know, but do you think react-redux will be compatible with it? I would expect any selector inside a hidden tree to not be called at all.

Interestingly, <Activity> used to be called <Offscreen>, and we've used that in the Replay.io DevTools for the last couple years, along with React-Redux:

• https://github.com/replayio/devtools

we did actually run into what seemed to be one possible compat issue:

• Connect HOC misses store changes when "offscreen" #1940

but looking at the discussion history there, it seems like it was actually a bug inside the experimental versions of React (as far as I can see).

So, in theory, there's nothing we need to do here , especially given that we rely on useSyncExternalStore.

Great to hear! :)
