What do you suggest developers use instead of Redux?

That's all correct, but in common usage 'Redux' almost always means 'React-Redux', i.e. the integration of Redux into a React app. And given the OP, that should be clear in the context of my comment.

What is it about Redux that you need?

What do people use instead of Redux these days?
