>If you're a library author doing non-trivial type stuff
So what if I'm not a "library author", what I do could still be non-trivial, and I could still do it without typescript like people have been doing for decades before. Typescript is not the only strong-typing game in javascript town.
>But it's worth it because you're about to get a massive multiplier effect based on the scale of your user base.
Using typescript is not a causal factor for this. What the library does, and what people need is.
And honestly I don't care who is using a library I make, life isn't all about likes and it isn't a popularity contest.
