okay this may sound weird, but why does an auth library have 412 dependencies? who audits these? am I the only one freaking out by how much of a dependency hell the average Typescript/JS experience is?

create-remix-app and adding privy auth -> 1232 packages added? LIKE WTF

Developer 🤓 build, develop and operate Farcaster solutions @ dtech.vision also love tech, decentralization, fitness and oldschool rap 😎

building privy.io, always in pursuit of ice cream, love /urbanism

how can I see deps that are shipped? build and manually check?

Honest take:
* Bloat
* Cost of cutting a hard v2 that moves a bunch of stuff people rely on to opt-in
* Wallet connectors are insane
* Dependencies != shipped deps (ie if you don't use Solana none of those will be included, all dev deps won't ship, etc)

It terrifies me too. VMs or multiple encrypted OS installs are your friend.
