I've found 2.x is way faster. I'd expect 3.x is even faster yet.

I hate that yarn needs to use a patched version of typescript. The logs and warnings are not very upfront. I'm waiting for typescript pnp pr to get merged.

The esm support is awesome. I remember rich harris tweeting something like "friends don't let friends use yarn 2". Once this is stable that will be really great, solve a nice batch of issues around pnp.

If you have developers on windows and have a shitty IT department, I've ran into an issue with yarn 2 where we were getting some security popup on windows, and it wasn't worth the effort to try and go through this crazy corporate approval process. I'm sure this is dependent on how you have installed node. Hopefully nvm-windows or Volta.sh would avoid such security prompts.

Actually I think we encountered the security prompts when using nvm-windows.
