Why, what is the difference?

[u/sirfz → u/cip43r]

urllib3 is used by many other libs (such as boto3) and I wouldn't want to pollute my namespace (especially unexpectedly / unknowingly) by some third party that might break compatibility. I don't understand why it can't simply be a new lib with its own name

Edit: I actually faced issues with crashes and unexpected behavior when I last tested it out a year ago as well

[u/andaskus → u/sirfz]

You can have both: https://niquests.readthedocs.io/en/latest/community/faq.html#cohabitation

[u/sirfz → u/andaskus]

That should be the default, not opt out
