Bun is riddled with bugs. That's what moving fast and breaking things gets you. It gets you famously bad codebases that are nightmares to work with and slow you down over time as your sins catch up with you. Vibecoding is not enough.
Then why do you care? If target users (developers) face issues with bun, they will stop using it. Go back to Node or switch to Deno.
Bun has bugs? yes. Do they affect vast majority of users? Not really. Been using bun for about 3 years; never had an issue with it.
Are you interested in the discussion that was taking place before you popped in or are you just here to get outraged that something you clearly identify strongly with is getting criticism for making poor choices?
"Because the discussion was interesting" is why I care.
Discussion was not interesting. It was built on speculation as facts and lies as facts.
The worst is "hey they are running proprietary fork and not open source anymore" when the code is available in plain sight. Canary build is available with one command. The stupid article made a huge stink about it without this key fact. Now they added the update but damage is done.
