...well, who decided to embrace Node compatibility?!

The DX of Deno far surpasses Node (or at least it did, idk if Node has caught up in that regard).

What are the big problems you see that still need solving that a future Deno (fork) could handle?

EDIT: Talking to people in the Discord and was reminded that the community may have been the inspiration. Adoption was low so boom, add Node compatibility and now adoption grows. MEH.

If I'm doing a fork, I'm removing Node.
