Javascript and classes go together like toothpaste and orange juice. All good JS programmers I know essentially pretend that classes don't exist in the language (or if they use them, they only do so rarely, for very niche cases).

JS does not have classical OOP built in! It has Brandon Eich's prototypal inheritance system (which has some key differences), along with a 2015 addition to the language to pretend it has OOP (but really that's just lipstick on the underlying prototypal pig).

If you use classes in JS, you're bound to be disappointed at some point when they don't behave like classical OOP. Most devs accept that and use more functional approaches (like factory functions) instead of OOP.
