Usage of react-panresponder-web, which is incompatible with React newer than 16

[datagutt]

I see this library no longer works with a newer version of React than 16. I tried to debug this issue, and found the following:

This is because it uses react-panresponder-web, which in turn depends on react-dom/unstable-native-dependencies (that no longer exists). It seems to use injectEventPluginsByName and a forked version of the react-native-web ResponderEventPlugin.
injectEventPluginsByName was removed in some newer version of React, and ResponderEventPlugin was removed in this commit and replaced with a useResponderEvents hook.

I attempted to fix this but i am not quite sure how to proceed. I see that react-native-web now has a new Responder Event System implementation: necolas/react-native-web#1568. This uses hooks, but it should be possible to wrap this around a class component as well.

I would be very grateful if you could fix this issue, or atleast give me a few pointers on how to proceed with fixing this.
