feels more like a bug with ncc than with the package? require("@octokit/plugin-throttling") doesn't work because it's an ESM module now, try import("@octokit/plugin-throttling")

Other users have experienced issues where tooling cannot find the module, and adding in a main field has helped them
See octokit/core.js#662

If require does not work, should the documentation (which says to use require) be updated?

Note that ncc is not involved in the bug report here; I simply installed the package through NPM and tried to load it with require.

[wolfy1339]

Yes, the docs need updating, but again, you should read the release notes as you seem to be upgrading this package

Fixed by #679

Thanks - I expect this will save people a lot of time with troubleshooting in future.
