I recently learned about Piped - liked it so much that I've made an iOS shortcut [1] that replaces YouTube URLs with piped.video

What about salaries? Is the net result positive for you?

Salaries went up a bit also tax was reduced - needless to say the price spikes aren't proportional but it's a start

Ethiopia seemingly has an incredibly good relationship with China. The lion's share of FDI in Ethiopia is from China, and much of it goes towards large infrastructure projects. Flying through the airport in Addis recently I was surprised to see multiple Chinese restaurants, a special lounge for Chinese travelers, and signs everywhere in Chinese.

It's great to see economic cooperation working out so well on so many levels!

Ethiopian here

Yes, Chinese contractors are having a big boom (banks, stadiums, airports & roads)

There's a shortage of foreign currency due to the mega projects underway - medicine, electronics, car prices have nearly doubled

It's been around for 2 years, I noticed it when github released a polyfill.

It's been great to rely on a standard function, than any of the libraries to make http requests.

I still use on axios over fetch. Mainly because fetch doesn't have abort function. axios implements cancelable promise proposal that didn't go though TC39

Tho it has been a while since I checked TC39 status on fetch
