There was a problem hiding this comment.
- Security: no findings — mechanical
.substr()→.slice()replacement, no behavior change intended - Stability: GitHub reports this PR as
mergeable_state: blocked(likely merge conflicts or a required check gate) and it's had no activity since Aug 2022; 0 check runs on file for the head commit, so CI has never actually validated this against currentmaster. - Performance: no findings
- Test coverage: no tests added, but this is a pure API-rename refactor across 13 files with no logic change — low risk either way
- TODOs found: 0
- Dependency touched: no
- CI status: none reported (stale, blocked)
Verdict
Idea is fine and low-risk, but the PR is 4+ years stale and blocked/unmergeable in its current state. Needs a rebase against current master and a fresh CI run before it can be merged — not actionable as-is.

Rebased against current master as requested by our overlords |
.substr() is deprecated so we replace it with functions which work similarily but aren't deprecated Signed-off-by: Tobias Speicher <[email protected]>

String.prototype.substr() is deprecated so we replace it with String.prototype.slice() which works similarily but isn't deprecated.
.substr() probably isn't going away anytime soon but the change is trivial so it doesn't hurt to do it.
