as a counterpoint, your fears are hypothetical so far - nobody on earth cares as much about bun as the bun team and if it was good enough for them it is probably good enough for 99% of users

i think someone who has built their infra on top of bun and have bills to pay care much more about bun stability than the team who get paid by Anthropic to vibecode an entire rewrite to another lang

they were stupid to do this in the first place. bun has always been a one man show. what were their plans for when he got hit by a bus?

I totally thought the other guy had you in the argument, and your retort blew my mind. An excellent point, people really need to research their runtimes before placing the entirety of your infra on them. Then again, I suppose that’s partially the reasoning for the existence of support contracts. I’m just going to add this here, but: was this whole thing just an aquihire? The dude is a badass, so I can see buying deno just to get him… skillset matches the areas cloadflare has roadmapped out, but still needs to shore up (a lot)
