every time I try to write nodejs server code I spend at least 15 minutes flailing trying to enable top-level await and then a further 30 minutes giving up and trying to remove my dependence on it
no lie I spent like 20 minutes trying to explain that undici/node-fetch was the customary way to do things these days and the SE I was talking to refused to believe me because he had never seen a customer/prospect use it
jesus christ i just checked the most recent download stats and back in may node 16 was in the top 5, i'm terrified of what this would look like if i actually looked at it for a month
