How to stop Prettier from using the old self closing tag syntax

Question

So I recently installed prettier and whenever I save my file it adds the forwards slash in a self-closing tag. I was wondering how to stop it from doing this?

Here is what I mean:-

<!-- Instead of this ↓ -->
<input type="text">

<!-- It does this ↓ -->
<input type="text" />

It can't be changed because of a Prettier philosophy, see: https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/5641

but you can change formatting of HTML files from Prettier to VS Code's formatter by adding in settings:

"[html]": {
  "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.html-language-features"
},
