We will end our development of the Deno runtime

Putting ourselves in the best place to build the future of the web

Deno team is joining Cloudflare and will soon stop working on the Deno runtime and Deno Deploy

Damn. Seems like the kiss of death. I really liked Deno. I wonder what Cloudflare is trying to gain by ending it.

I was so hyped for deno3 to be released, now instead of that I got bombarded with these news, I just got used to it. Now after a couple years of avoiding bunjs I guess I'll have to switch after all.

I did in a different thread than this acquisition is less bad if it had been acquired by Microsoft and maybe deno is still better than Node. This announcement makes it clear that what we want from Deno is going to fade away and the situation is much worse fhan6what I had hoped for.

Wow, first bun went full AI (i.e. I won't use it), and now this. I guess I'll just start node or spidermonkey when I want to use a JS REPL. Shame about not being able to use TypeScript anymore though.

Yeah, but node has no standard library which deno had, and no security model which deno also had. (technically node has a "security model" in name only since it's broken by design)

This didn’t seem to be a problem for Victor though, did it?
