s3 is pretty much a de-facto standard, just like json like or not. Postgres also makes sense, it is the most widespread and community-liked db. What is the point of "optional libraries" tbh? It was a PITA in PHP back in the days and very inconvenient, prob most devs would prefer this way.

I feel like HN is on cognitive dissonance, they complain JS projects having too many dependencies and they also complain now when things are more integrated into the runtime because it increases vendor-lock and few extra megabytes (actually kilobytes according to the devs) to the binaries :/.

Lastly, big companies also prefer less dependencies, it is not just devs.
