Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a4b98

This change removes experimental prefetch-in-render support and its returned promise, but the current retry implementation may fail strict TypeScript compilation because callback variables can be used before assignment. That could block builds, so merge should wait for the typing issue to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

@TkDodo it's been a long time since I last heard about this on bluesky. Has there been any updates on how, in the future, react will help supporting this?

I'm not sure if there have been any progress on making a transition compatible uSES hook.

@TkDodo it's been a long time since I last heard about this on bluesky. Has there been any updates on how, in the future, react will help supporting this?

I'm not sure if there have been any progress on making a transition compatible uSES hook.

this is a slightly different topic, but to fully support react transitions, we would need a concurrent compatible useStore hook from react. It doesn’t seem like we’re getting that though
