From README of package node-sass:

Warning: LibSass and Node Sass are deprecated. While they will continue to receive maintenance releases indefinitely, there are no plans to add additional features or compatibility with any new CSS or Sass features. Projects that still use it should move onto Dart Sass.

So if transitioning to Dart Sass (sass) is the way to go, node-sass shouldn't break this package when you're using the sass.compiler = require('sass'); option (because you're not actually using node-sass in that scenario). So why is node-sass a dependency at all? Why not a peer dependency or optional dependency or something? I'm not sure what would be the best solution, all I know is it's very frustrating that gulp-sass does not work on Node 16, even if you do not use node-sass at all.

When I encountered this issue myself, I saw a few more things need to be done to ship this fix – see #802.

One of my open-source teams uses gulp-sass, and its current dependency graph is a blocker for anyone on an M1 Mac, since M1s can only run Node 16. Please consider my PR, or any PR which updates node-sass, because this is a significant blocker for M1 devices.

Thanks all, close this to focus efforts on #802 which is more rounded at this point in time.
