Hello Bod (and my even if late, warmest welcome to the monastery!) In my opinion if there is something in core, use it. HTTP::Tiny has been in core since 5.14 I suppose cpan client can use different http clients, but I never investigated this. The author of HTTP::Tiny wrote a nice introduction with comparisons too: why HTTP::Tiny Back in time we had only LWP::* modules to use and many of us used them a lot. Nothing bad to still using them as they still work great. But there are many and newer and better nowadays: Mojo::UserAgent is worth a mention among them.
