I've heard people mention curl and imagemagick. Any others that you know about?

Edit: maybe it was core js. I don't remember the name exactly.

Standard JS. It's a library maintained by one guy in Russia who went to jail for some car accident (I don't have the full context). He needed money and had trouble getting it. Then the Ukraine invasion happened and that only made it more difficult for him to get money. Also he was harassed by less technical people seeing his code on websites thinking it was malicious.

It's really a sad story to me.

Yeah it was quite shocking for me to read his story. Link for everyone who hasn't come across it yet. https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/blob/master/docs/2023-02-14-so-whats-next.md

Edit: Just noticed that he used the exact same comic in this write up.
