What happened?

const { activate } = useIdleTimer(config);

The above will throw:

@typescript-eslint/unbound-method: Avoid referencing unbound methods which may cause unintentional scoping of `this`. If your function does not access `this`, you can annotate it with `this: void`, or consider using an arrow function instead.

According to this stackoverflow post, it's because there's a meaningful difference between:

type IIdleTimer = {
  activate(): bool;
}
// and
type IIdleTimer = {
  activate: () => bool;
}

which is that the former is typed as a function() definition and carries the this weirdness, where the latter is not.

Nice catch! Out of curiosity, is this popping up for you because you are using class components?

Nope, normal functional components defined as arrow functions. To be honest I don't understand enough about typescript to understand why it's complaining about this.

Are you using this? No worries I'll look into it.

Nope. I also opened #361 to fix it.
