I was referring specifically to the developers of NPM and provided links to examples of them abusing their power.
Yes creating a non authoritarian fork is the only effective alternative, which is why I mention yarn. Yarn might not solve all of the problems with NPM but it showed the NPM developers that people would build alternatives if NPM pushed them to it.
In response NPM has lifted a lot of yarns features and improved its speed. Despite not being perfect it was at least affective enough as an alternative for NPM to notice and fear.
