No. I had a nasty experience with Typescript's async/await and I am annoyed

I find async/await very confusing. It as one thing pretending to be another

I prefer my paradigms simple and straight

Async await is deceptively simple but very wiggly. Not straight at all. Loads of magic fairy dust obscuring what's really happening

It is helpful until it isn't and then it's very unhelpful
