Should we deprecate old versions?

Many issues are opened due to people using ancient versions of this library (and unsupported versions of Node.js, or even other runtimes).

Should we mark all versions prior to the current version as "no longer supported"?

You mean deprecating them on npm? Definitely +1, we should only support the latest version, nobody can expect anything else. This would give them a warning right when installing the package.

This seems to only be supported via the npm cli, so it’d be up to @JoshuaWise to make this happen.

I've deprecated versions below v7.5.3. I'll deprecate more versions when Node.js 18 support ends.
