Update Node.js from v12 to v16#332
Conversation
According to the release policy of Node.js, Node.js v12 reached EOL (end-of-life). https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases/ I think ruby/setup-ruby is ready to update Node.js to v16 because GitHub Actions runners support v16. actions/runner#772

I am a bit surprised that this did not come as a major release (there are incompatibility with this change) Any thoughts? |
|
IMHO it's too much to ask every user to bump a major version just for a dependency (node) which is anyway provided by the GitHub Actions runner software/its dependencies: #302 (comment) |

Note that the Ubuntu-22.04 image only has node 14 & 16 installed. |
I've taken a look and Ubuntu 18.04, Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 22.04, all macOS and latest Windows images have nodejs v16 installed by default according to README So not sure about that incompatibility @chenrui333 talking about? |
