When turning on the Discord bot, I get this TypeError:

I'm aware that I should update but I have to remain on v11.6.4 because I'm using node-chakracore and apparently versions past v12 don't work (v14 didn't for me)... Other ppl had this issue before but I couldn't find a solution. The bot does connect to discord but it doesn't receive any message event for example. node -v says v20.12.2

- What's your exact discord.js npm list discord.js and node node -v version? - Not a discord.js issue? Check out #other-js-ts. - Consider reading #how-to-get-help to improve your question! - Explain what exactly your issue is. - Post the full error stack trace, not just the top part! - Show your code! - Issue solved?

so there's no way to make it work before v12 anymore?
