You're still nesting. Considering the whole point the author made was that something went wrong with `filterUsersWithFriends`, then you would simply handle that in the next `.then`... So something like:

  export default function getUsers () {
    return getUsers()
      .then(users => filterUsersWithFriends)
      .then(getUsersLikes, trySomethingElse);
  }

would have been more than enough.

I think the problem with your solution is that trySomethingElse won't have access to the users variable unless the filterUsersWithFriends rejection explicitly passes it through.

That still doesn't look as nice as await.

I dont think this quite works. For one thing, the users references won't be available when you try to use it in trySomethingElse(users), because it's scoped to that little arrow function above. For another, it has the effect of catching any error thrown by getUsers() and calling trySomethingElse, whereas the original code simply did nothing in that case.

This isn't correct, `users` would be undefined.
