People have been trying to kill Java for years. 🥲

Java has managed to adapt and evolve over the years and stayed relevant in many domains.

I think it's too early for conclusions. But Bun is definitely a promising framework to keep an eye on.

Bun is compatible with Nodejs api and most packages will work on Bun. So why not use it.

Dependence on a small team that is VC funded is a concern. What if they're not able to raise funds anymore?

Replace or not, but I have massive respect for the guy that created. Lived off his saving for 2 years. Pure grind. I respect it.

Interesting. Now, how can he profit from bun. As far as I know it's open source.

They are providing "bun runtime as a service". But rarely real projects use these services. Only hobbyists and not so corporatey companies host something.
