Error when directly decoding Uint8Array

[osechet]

protobuf.js version: 6.3.1

Here is my proto message:

message Response {
    fixed32 id = 1;
    bytes data = 2;
    string error = 3;
}

When I directly decode the data sent from my server as a Uint8Array, for example:

let data = Uint8Array.from([26, 5, 69, 114, 114, 111, 114]);
let foo = Response.decode(data);

I get the following error:

TypeError: this.buf.utf8Slice is not a function
    at BufferReader.read_string_buffer [as string]
    at Function.decode

If I pass a Reader to the decode function, it works:

let data = Uint8Array.from([26, 5, 69, 114, 114, 111, 114]);
let foo = Response.decode(new Reader(data));

Why would you use Uint8Array.from over Buffer.from on node? Can of course be checked for, though.

@dcodeIO This was just for the example. In my application, I'm not creating the data array, I get it from a c++ server and I receive it as a Uint8Array.

Alright, just note that passing an Uint8Array uses the browser reader now which doesn't benefit from node's buffer binding for strings and so on.
