Why is this good/better compared to date-fns?
Smaller bundle size, similarity to moment.js As a dev who’s used all three, is there a massive difference? Not really. Stick with what you like (though moment is no longer maintained so maybe not that)

Luxon is my preferred library
But how does this compare to Luxon, besides it being the preferred library of blahyawnblah?

Interesting, Luxon seems to be the only library in that article using Intl [1] for locales

It's embarrassing we never evolved the date api which comes with the browser. That said, I tend to err on writing a custom function / importing only a custom function over importing an entire library just to run a 2 lines function.
The new Temporal API in JS is precisely that.
Very awesome to see Moment JS have a legacy. What a great api

Yeah, but that’s been just a proposal for a long time. Getting new features in JS takes forever.
It’s literally final pending commitments from/to another standards body. If they hadn’t made that commitment there’d be people chastising them for something else. I swear to fuck, we can’t have nice things because no one will ever accept having nice things.

I have not used moment.js or other date libraries in a long while. But how does this compare to Luxon? ( https://moment.github.io/luxon/#/why )
Dayjs has the familiar momentjs API.
Both libraries have the greatest differentiating feature from moment: immutable objects. Being able to compose dayjs objects together without fear of modifying them afterwards makes everything a breeze.
