I'm trying to investigate for a better and if possible elegant solution, if by any chance you get one, please share it with me ! 😄

Yeah. I think the problem is much wider. There are so many misleading articles in this matter (canceling async request). For example '' JavaScript Promise is miraculously leakproof ", " There is no need for cleaning up after requests " - these are such common beliefs. I would call myself a newbie and I know how hard it is to trust to some resources

Yeah, I really feel deceived by all those articles and libs out there.
I must say I don't really know if there is a true good solution, since even AbortController doesn't seem to work ...
BTW I updated the article and invited the readers to come and check the discussions out 👍.
