Subject of the issue

Metascraper helpers depends on url-regex-safe:

"@metascraper/helpers@^5.25.0":
  version "5.25.0"
  resolved "https://registry.yarnpkg.com/@metascraper/helpers/-/helpers-5.25.0.tgz#ce53761a87326d3744cb8919cc6a881487406bec"

    normalize-url "~6.1.0"
    smartquotes "~2.3.2"
    url-regex-safe "~2.0.2"
    video-extensions "~1.2.0"

which in turn depends on re2 1.15.9, which does not have support for Node 16

url-regex-safe@~2.0.2:
  version "2.0.2"
  resolved "https://registry.yarnpkg.com/url-regex-safe/-/url-regex-safe-2.0.2.tgz#41d02bb7c927d57008389f636de0bd850a40fc7c"

  dependencies:
    ip-regex "^4.3.0"
    re2 "^1.15.9"
    tlds "^1.217.0"

re2 version 1.16.0 does have support for node 16 and it looks like url-regex-safe has recently upgraded to it. If a package upgrade is supported would be great to be able to use this with node 16!

url-regex-safe recently made re2 optional and will fallback to the native RegExp in the 2.1.0 release. Bumping the version will likely resolve this issue. The new version of url-regex-safe is already merged into master, so we're waiting on a new release of metascraper.

Thanks for notifying me. Released v5.25.1, can you confirm it works as expected?

Works! Thanks @Kikobeats
