Also looking for review and merge, implementing @ashish-r's changes through patch-package for now.

In Firefox not updating of the state blocked the whole thread as the following try couldn't continue (recognizing the previous worker process as still running).

The patch-package file to be found here: https://gist.github.com/optimista/69e168b9eb63921ce188ef555c709f4d

Hey @alewin thanks for merging the PR. I see that the release workflow failed in the Setup pnpm config. Do we manually release the package? Or should I check the workflow failure and patch the same?

PS: We need to upgrade the node version here: https://github.com/alewin/useWorker/blob/master/.github/workflows/release.yml

Hi @alewin, thanks for merging the PR, the fix is not yet released. Please let me know if there is anything else you need.

I wasted hours setting my code up for this lib, and now I discover I can't kill workers. It makes things completely useless for me.
For anyone else who wants to get a quick solution from this, use https://github.com/Shopify/quilt/blob/main/packages/react-web-worker/README.md. Much more stable and feature-complete.
