I think Deno's management have been somewhat distracted by their ongoing lawsuits with Oracle over the release of the Javascript trademark.
I started out with Deno and when I discovered Bun, I pivoted. Personally I don't need the NodeJS/NPM compatability. Wish there was a Bun-lite which was freed of the backward compatability.
- pier25 11mo agoI'm in a similar position. I use Hono, Zod, and Drizzle which AFAIK don't need Node compat. IIRC I've only used Node compat once to delete a folder recursively with rm.
- Zambyte 11mo agoWhat do you dislike about having node compatibility?
- GianFabien 11mo agoThe bloat. I prefer lean designs with plug-in modules for additional functionality. Not only do unused sub-systems take up memory, but they also increase the potential attack surface.
- carefulfungi 11mo agoIronically, this was early Deno - but then adoption required backwards compatibility.
- pjmlp 11mo agoIn regards to Deno, to me that means their business is not really flying and they need this kind of distractions instead. Amount of people at big corps that care about their lawsuit, and would switch their IT guidelines from node to Deno due to such heroic efforts? Zero.
