Throwing all away by changing to a different programming language.
None of it is thrown away, it’s just now in a new language.
On top of that Bun is realistically a one man show with the vast majority of the code written by one dude. So the comment I replied to started from outrage and worked backwards to justify it without thinking too hard tbh.
The implication that you shouldn’t be able to change the programming language of your own project is also weird. Personally I welcome things like Typescript being rewritten in Go
When other people start to relying on you, you do develop some level of responsibility to them. That's not weird at all. If your project is your cat's website code, no one cares if it breaks. If you're project is something my project relies on that I use to put food on the table, yeah it's your project, but it's not remotely weird for me to have some sort of an opinion if I think you're yolo pulling rugs, and using hope as the strategy that you don't pull one that I'm standing on.
In your fantasy scenario moving to Rust over Zig 0.16 would good
