They figured out a way to fund work that they care deeply about.
With respect, and without impugning your right to make this criticism, I find your criticism shallow.
I don't know what your particular circumstances are, but I see your view expounded a lot by developers who are getting their salaries from companies that can afford to pay them because they took VC money in the first place.
We are certainly not entitled to Deno for free (although the MIT license is in their best interests for now). I am glad they found a way to sustain its development for the near future.

- zomglings 6y agoIt is most definitely not a loan. It is time/runway, purchased with equity and eventual loss of control. Edit: There is more to it, of course. It is also entry into a somewhat exclusive network of future investors + customers if you choose your VCs wisely.
