I get the following error when trying to run the example from the readme:

*** WARNING *** The program 'node' uses the Apple Bonjour compatibility layer of Avahi.
*** WARNING *** Please fix your application to use the native API of Avahi!

I'm running in Ubuntu on WSL2 in Windows 10. I'm not sure if the warnings are related to the error as those warnings are common and usually ignored. It looks like this is also reported upstream at agnat/node_mdns#141.
