• Babel is used by millions, so why are we running out of money? (2021)

  I do appreciate your transparency, though I disagree with the sentiment that I’m arguing from a position of bad faith.

  It’s a self-evident fact that the Babel team has not shown a moment of interest in lowering their role in the JavaScript ecosystem to anything short of kingmakers. Have a gander at their GitHub README and what do we see?[1]

  - “Babel is a compiler for writing next generation JavaScript.” Indefinitely.

  - Over a dozen sponsor logos. An embarrassment of riches.

  - A literal audio recording of a song in praise of the project.

  The Babel team has a well documented history of their priorities[2], emphasizing the need for a modular approach that has no exit strategy[3]. At best, we have a case of accidental entrenchment and long term dependence on the Babel brewing as early as 2017![4]

  Compare this infinite circus to the humble but popular Normalize.css, which has the express purpose to stop existing.[5]

  If the Babel team wants to raise some money, they can start by putting a plan together that would codify an exit strategy. It’s certainly more noble than their current plan of barnacling on to every NPM package…

• Reveddit does not work
  2 projects | /r/reveddit | 6 Jan 2023

  The problem was I had used some new code, Javascript's replaceAll(), that is unsupported by older browsers. And, the setup I have to automatically fix such issues (called babel) is out of date. So, while this problem appears to be resolved there, I hadn't updated that in awhile.
