You want to see him address being "a stinky manager", having "beginner energy", choosing to take VC as opposed to "a solid living via crowdfunding", or "already writing slop well before he had access to LLMs"?
Those are all opinions where arguing about them isn't going to be productive.
Countering the accusation of "an outright fabrication" on the other hand is worthwhile because it's a claim that can be countered.
If somebody called me a liar for something that demonstrably wasn't a lie I wouldn't let that stand, either.

Hmm, fuzzing integration was merged 8 months ago. First found bug mentioned 3 months ago. Bun is 4 years old. I think both arguments can be true at the same time based on this evidence. It is entirely possible that for more than 3 years team has said that no fuzzing was done, and the first fuzzing was done just 3 months ago, and this information did not travel.
Those statements are all consistent with the publicly observable facts like this whole thing going from "I'm experimenting with this" to "this is merged into main now, yolo" within a week or so. The complaints from Jarred on the amount of bugs they've been having is too.
Bun donates $60,000 per year [month] and Jarred acts with graciousness and soft tones when talking to outside parties. Why do you think it's Jarred's obligation to continue after being insulted for professional dishonesty?
Isn't it Andrew's obligation to show that he was worth that much kindness to begin with?
Maybe I'm overly cynical, but I don't know that directing some funding towards the open-source project that is the foundation of your whole tech stack is really "kindness" per se.
When you are vending a devtool to other open-source developers, and making a lot of hay about the specific technology choice, it's basically marketing spend. It's also often a way of buying favour (attention to issues, PRs, etc) from the project maintainers...

If you're going to accuse someone of "an outright fabrication" it's on you to check that you're not wrong before you say that.

It all checks out.

Per year, not month.
The blog is not worth a reply. It's just a butthurt, petulant rant full of personal attacks.
