For a few years I was opting to use the per-method packages from npm (`npm install lodash.pick`) but they just stopped being updated... https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash.pick has not been updated in 7 years and is stuck at v4.4.0. I guess I missed the memo on that... and none of the npm packages have been deprecated to reflect the state of things.

Now going onto the lodash package on npm, that's listed as v4.17.21 and hasn't been published in over 2 years: https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash

Now the lodash package on github, the latest release is listed as v4.0.0 from 2016: https://github.com/lodash/lodash/releases

There have been no commits to the main branch on github in almost 2 years: https://github.com/lodash/lodash/commits/master

I consider lodash to be deprecated at this point, and will always go for a lightweight function pulled from somewhere like SO or No Lodash.
