I originally did not call this project as fraudulent rather "This is not as advertised" which talked about here: https://github.com/vlang/v/issues/35 https://github.com/vlang/v/issues/35
Note: some of the comments on that issue have been deleted by the v-lang creator as they were criticizing the claims made.
However, advertising a product can do something and then releasing it stating it cannot do it yet, is one thing, but accepting money for a product that does not what is advertised, is fraud.
If the features were advertised as goals, that would not have been an issue. But these features were advertised as existing and ready to use.
Please do not give this individual money!!!

If you want to support new languages that do as advertised, please support my language Odin or Andrew Kelley's language Zig.
Both are very good languages as alternatives to C but with different philosophies behind them.

- gingerBill 7y agoStop advertising your language as being more capable than it is. That is the only complaint. You are advertising under false pretenses and asking for money for early access to a product (through Patreon) which does match what is advertised.
- amedvednikov 7y agoFirst of all the language is released on June 22. It was released today for 7 hours. There's no more early access. Second of all, you haven't listed any of these "false pretenses". Your AST and runtime points are laughable. So is the "dependency" on glfw and freetype.
- amedvednikov 7y agoBy the way, you claimed V was too primitive to build anything other than Fibonacci. What about this? :) https://vlang.io/img/buildv.mp4 https://vlang.io/img/buildv.mp4 Are you going to retract your statement and apologize? Doubt it.
