Indeed another fine example, forcing developers into massive packages like axios.
Since we're in a salty mood, let's keep it going. jQuery, the much despised jQuery. Inspired by jQuery, browsers now have native DOM APIs that are somewhat equivalent, reducing the need for jQuery.
Except that their syntax is terrible, and chaining isn't possible on most methods. So an elegant chained one-liner in jQuery becomes a blob of ugly syntax spanning many lines using native methods.
A massive regression.
