- Roritharr 10y agoSomething i can relate to. It just feels wrong to do a npm install for something very basic and see half a linux installation happening in the console...
- weego 10y agoIt does nothing to address the underlying issue of people relying on NPM packages where there is little-to-no developer maturity to do with stable APIs and ongoing support. I'll never criticise anyone for releasing OSS but ultimately he just becomes the things that half of NPM relies on and the vicious cycle continues.
