馃摋 API Reference Docs Problem

https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v16.x/api/string_decoder.html

Description

Like with util inherit and querystring can you also mark string_decoder as legacy and say something in terms of:

The String decoder is considered Legacy. While it is still maintained, new code should use the TextDecoder API instead.

Would be best for cross platform coding... Maybe even possible deprecate it?

  • I would like to work on this issue and submit a pull request.
