>rapid replacement of backends in JavaScript

Really? I thought that was a ~2017 thing.

Ha it's still going strong. Now bifurcated between node+next and the rise of Deno.

It won't stop either because the road between between JS client dev and JS server dev is so smooth. Path of least resistance type thing.

It’s not really bifurcated. Hardly anyone is using demo.

I think Slack is using deno now.

One has to be in a pretty tiny bubble to believe there’s rapid replacement of Java backends with Deno, of all things.

That was my first thought in reading the "JavaScript backend" thing.
