Can I get binary (KiB, MiB) units instead of decimal? How?

Yes, you can use binary units (KiB, MiB, etc.) instead of decimal units by setting the binary option to true.

According to the README, here's how:

import prettyBytes from 'pretty-bytes';

prettyBytes(1024, {binary: true});
//=> '1 KiB'

The binary option formats the number using the Binary Prefix instead of the default SI Prefix. This is useful for presenting memory amounts, though it should not be used for presenting file sizes [readme.md:L80-L84].

When binary: true is set, the library uses the BIBYTE_UNITS array (B, KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB, PiB, EiB, ZiB, YiB) instead of the default BYTE_UNITS array (B, kB, MB, GB, TB, PB, EB, ZB, YB) [index.js:L14-L22].
