Oh hi Steve! https://registry.yarnpkg.com is just a proxy to the normal npm registry provided by Cloudflare so we can add additional caching and work on network performance (lots of stuff we could layer on top). It should hopefully help those in China as well which would be awesome. But everything you do still lives on the normal npm registry.

Makes total sense, thanks for elaborating! I don't do very much node dev, but when I do, it'll be yarn from now on.
