I can't seem to fix this error: TextDecoderFatal ?= new TextDecoder('utf8', { fatal: true });

It appears to be a node version error, but the fix requires access to the node modules which I don’t appear to have access to. Is there anyone else that has this error or knows a fix that works in glitch?

was this syntax available in node.js 16? you can try updating your node version to see if it helps

or maybe downgrade the bson library somehow
