is it recommended to run another api request in the .then method of an api request?

I think it's better to do it in another step in promise chain, because nesting .then() will lead to kind of callback hell 😛 @Script So it's better to do either:

someAsyncStuff()
  .then(() => {
    return someOtherAsyncStuffReturningPromise()
  })
  .then(() => {
    return yetAnotherAsyncStuffReturningPromise()
  })
  // ... another `.then()` or nothing

someAsyncStuff()
  .then(() => {
    return someOtherAsyncStuffReturningPromise()
  })
  .then(() => {
    return yetAnotherAsyncStuffReturningPromise()
  })
  // ... another `.then()` or nothing

const promise = await someAsyncStuff();
const someOtherPromise = await someOtherAsyncStuffReturningPromise();
const yetAnotherPromise = await yetAnotherAsyncStuffReturningPromise();

const promise = await someAsyncStuff();
const someOtherPromise = await someOtherAsyncStuffReturningPromise();
const yetAnotherPromise = await yetAnotherAsyncStuffReturningPromise();
