Genuinely curious, are there people out there using newer versions of this package with old / unsupported versions of Node (in production)?

- silverwind 3y agoNot really. Adoption of new Node versions is quite quick, given their short support periods. https://nodejs.org/metrics/summaries/version.png https://nodejs.org/metrics/summaries/version.png
- phire 3y agoIt probably happens, but not really on purpose. If the package.lock file gets deleted or someone runs a global npm-update then npm will update any packages while respecting semantic versioning. It's possible an organisation forgot to include the package.lock file in their deployment image and they get updated npm packages every time they redeploy. It's also possible a developer making minor changes to a legacy system triggers packages to be updated, perhaps without even noticing.
