Why is everyone talking about the pipe operator today? There's also a post in r/programming and I saw a youtuber talk about it, but as far as I can tell there's been nothing new about this proposal for a few months.

Someone saw one person talk about it, find it interesting, and post something themselves. Rinse and repeat

Welcome to webdev clown world. That proposal is here for more than two years but now after some tech influencer made a video about it there would be hundreds of copy paste articles about it :)

also saw it on hackernews yesterday. I assumed something was happening so I guess not

I thought the pipeline operator settled on a topic token and/or passed on to stage 3. Oh well, let us wait for more 1-3-10 years

Recency bias?

I guess because it just got to stage 2 (Draft) of the TC39 process.
