After hearing about Bun today, this is such a curveball. Ironic as it is in this 'get big enough to sell' ethos mentality that seems to be prevalent, this is what I would have expected from Bun.

I like Ghostty, don't get a chance to use it enough but everyone I know loves it, this is so cool to hear.

I do hope the creators and maintainers get something good though. Open source work seems majority ignored to me at least, and admittedly by me too most of the time.

Alas, Bun is a VC-backed startup. Having $7m in funding is great, but it does come with some strings attached.

But maybe now Bun founders can start a nonprofit project of their own!
