Yoda lifting a fcuking mountain is still the best raw TK feat in canon... That will likely never be topped, tbh.
Rey's boulder feat is one of(if not the) best TK/lifting feats in a film, though. The showing is even more impressive when you consider that she has almost NO training(the 'lessons' Luke taught her are it.) Moreover, that was, literally, the first time she ever used TK outside of moving lightsabers... Not too damn shabby, imo.

Reminiscent of Anakin IMO. Supremely naturally gifted, but little-to-no effort in training to wield that power effectively.
Reminds me of something TenebrousWay said here a while back:
"Look at the good Count: He was the greatest Jedi of the last 900 years after Yoda, one of the most skilled duelists among trillions of beings who ever lived, worked his ass through his entire life, sought to learn Sith knowledge to enhance his already legendary powers and had a strict and disciplined lifestyle...and got stomped by a undisciplined, entitled, crying idiot in his early twenties."
I wouldn't be pleasantly surprised if Rey becomes a more powerful, Mary Sue, edition of Anakin.
If I was pushing a feminist agenda, I'd want to project the message that women can succeed just as much as men through hard-work and discipline—not through some natural-given power and sense of entitlement.

Wow, she's such a strong character. I've been a dummy my entire life with no real plans other than to just pop out some kids and be a stay-at-home mom, but after watching Ray lift those thousands of pounds of rocks with 0 training or instruction whatsoever in her entire life I'm now inspired to get a stem degree and become an engineer!

Yeah I want to say that Yoda's mountain feat was proven misleading by someone here a while back...can't remember the specific argument made, but he had assistance from the planet—like a nexus.

Rey is Palpatine's secret daughter. It all makes sense now. Palps probably conceived her with Jocasta Nu in his office or the Jedi Library.
