- blueI don't buy the story. The guy is either retarded or too embarrassed to tell the truth
- phalethweb devs generally use windows, even big portion of lib authors
- blue(I didn't read that github story because I already read some report about this a few days ago)
- phalethnodejs has already added native support for fetch API and so no reason to bother with axios, but still, it's weird how widely that lib is used
- blueya
- phalethand how much churn there was
- blueidiots be idiots, I guess? if you use windows, you're a moron
- blueand if you're an npm maintainer using windows, that's even worse
- phalethit's most likely people don't update their old projects, once they added axios years back they still keep using axios to the date, blind to runtime improvements

- bluesystemfault: TS using # private fields for structural compatibility is a crime against humanity
- bluethey're implementation details, TS should just ignore them, if a public interface matches, that should be enough
