Subject: [PATCH] docs: fix typos and outdated references in README
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

- Fix variable name typo in parseStrict example (`str` → `s`)
- Fix invalid catch clause type annotation (`error: Error` → `error`)
- Update Edge Runtime example to use `runtime: 'edge'` instead of
  the deprecated `'experimental-edge'`
- Remove outdated `canary` install comments from Edge example
- Replace `npm link` workflow with `pnpm install` + `pnpm test`
- Remove orphaned footnote about Internet Explorer

 ## Caught a Bug?
 
 1. [Fork](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/) this repository to your own GitHub account and then [clone](https://help.github.com/articles/cloning-a-repository/) it to your local device
-2. Link the package to the global module directory: `npm link`
-3. Within the module you want to test your local development instance of ms, just link it to the dependencies: `npm link ms`. Instead of the default one from npm, Node.js will now use your clone of ms!
-
-As always, you can run the tests using: `npm test`
-
-[^1]: Internet Explorer is not supported
+2. Install dependencies: `pnpm install`
