Typescript is for people who hate JavaScript, for the most part. The bulk of the people who have been writing JavaScript for years and aren’t Java converts are still using JavaScript and will continue to do so.

But they do also offer an ad free experience for a fee.

I don’t love that they’re doing this, but I do understand it.
