Code origin was not even a factor https://ziggit.dev/t/bun-s-zig-fork-got-4x-faster-compilatio...

That seems totally reasonable but I wonder if there was some head butting in non-public channels given Bun is one of the biggest players in Zig and planned to push through a change like that on their own.

  • Even if there was anything in private channels, the reasons stated in that forum post are alone more than enough to reject Bun's Zig changes.

    • And also great reasons for Bun to port themselves elsewhere. If they aren’t allowed to contribute to Zig, there’s very little reason to select Zig moving forward.

  • I wonder if they didn’t consider the problems of their changes in Zig what else do they not consider in Bun
