And I wonder what happened there.
Like what, why, but, um,
What about Volt?
You mentioned Volt.
That's another one that's been up and coming from longtime JS ecosystem people, Darcy Clark and friends, and then backed by a lot of people who have been around the ecosystem forever and have benefited and had issues with NPM over the years.
Is Vault been manifest?
Is it a thing?
Is it still becoming a thing?
Is it a viable option?
Because eventually we can't make GitHub do anything.
And so if they're not going to do anything, we can continue to tell them they should and try to convince them.
But having some other alternative, which I was hoping JSR would become, would be at least somewhere you could put your efforts into and say, let's all do this instead.
And it would be grassroots and it would be a lot of work.
And I understand there's
billions of things being downloaded every month off of NPM.
But if the package maintainers had somewhere to point people and say, you know what, for new versions of ESLint, you got to go here, you know, put it in your post install script.
This is an old version of ESLint for the new version.
I'm only publishing on this other platform.
Go read my blog for the reasons.
If you can get the top 100 packages for maintainers to do that, you could probably make a dent.
