The Evolution of RxJS Management in Angular

this is out of date, a bit complicated
just use something like this example with destroyRef and takeUntilDestroyed
import { Component, DestroyRef, inject } from ‘@angular/core’;
import { takeUntilDestroyed } from ‘@angular/core/rxjs-interop’;
export class Component implements OnInit{
public data;
private destroyRef = inject(DestroyRef);
constructor(private service: DataService) {}
public ngOnInit(): void {
this.service.getData()
.pipe(takeUntilDestroyed(this.destroyRef))
.subscribe(response =&gt; this.data = response);
}
}
