The last three months have not looked good for Bun. It started as one of the most impressive individual engineering projects I have seen, but has now turned into this weird AI-powered creature with continuous false promises and an increasingly frustrated community.

      In point of fact, the language devs of Zig (what Bun was originally written in) have seriously distanced themselves from Bun, as a result of a number of things - not least of which, because evidently the Bun dev was just… doing a lot of crazy, sketchy, cowboy shit that the Zig lang devs found aggravating, because it was basically the showcase project for Zig, and it was honestly kinda making the language look not awesome.
