Future generations will no doubt remember this announcement as a revolutionary leap into a brighter future. But I'm sure I'll still be using Moment.js ten years from now the way I'm still using JQuery 3.x now.
Javascript is all we have for front end web apps now, impoverished as it is as a language. But excuse me if I don't get excited every time a proposal is rolled out to bring it close to the 21st century.

However, they're suboptimal; MomentJS is a relatively large and difficult to compress / tree-shake library, for example. Have you considered switching to Luxon? It should be a relatively small transition.
