Bun in its current state absolutely has issues like segfaults. As nice as it is, I moved off of it back to node for production.
Folks generally tolerate issues if they believe they’ll get better with time. I know I did for a while. If that confidence collapses, that’s not politics.
- johnfn 4mo agoBut there's no evidence of that in the post. If they had said something like "Bun had bugs X, Y and Z - this Rust thing is the last straw, it's over" -- that would be a reasonable decision, and no one could really complain. But they didn't say that. They just said it "seems like a future headache".
- reitzensteinm 4mo agoAre we reading the same post? They literally point to bugs X and Y. I don't see politics, I see frustrated maintainers of a hobby project that aren't particularly professional.
- johnfn 4mo agoMaybe we aren't. I see two points of rationale: - A single bug about EJS, which was fixed almost a year ago and has never regressed. - Frustration that Bun was rewritten in Rust, which "seems like a future headache" - i.e. no evidence of current issues, just something which they suspect might have issues in the future. If you see more evidence of more bugs that weren't fixed almost a year ago I'd be curious to see it.
