I am shocked by how good and comprehensive the bun docs & ecosystem is.

Its so well contained I never need to look outside its ecosystem for basic components. It's a true "Batteries Included" runtime.

Last time I read the bun docs I spotted an off-by-one bug in sample code, so I opened a github issue. An AI bot responded, confirming the issue, and opened a PR to fix it - A simple "+ 1" added in the right place. Two other AI bots reviewed the PR, which went on for several rounds of "improvements". Last time I checked, neither the issue nor the PR received any human attention (actually I just checked again, and the PR has been closed by stalebot).

Bun is so good that can’t be used as server and only as local script runner.

Leaks memory left and right. And the core team seems unable to fix it.

Yet I rarely hear about it being used in production systems and replacing Node.js.
