It has been excellent, best browser game engine imo - however as of Godot 4, the web export is completely broken, unfortunately. Godot with C# straight up has no web export and no mobile export atm, just desktop.

Hmm, something is amiss here... They're already on RC5 and web export not working doesn't sound like the web platform is a focus of theirs. AFAIK, the web export being broken is not mentioned in "Known Issues" about V4 either.

Web Export for 4 is fine, just not with C#. That may be the same thing to some people, but there is a distinction.
No, it's not fine. It's broken on Chrome for macOS and freezes on startup for about 10-20 seconds. Has nothing to do with C#, this happens with GDScript, too. It's a known issue, has been discussed at length on Github (by myself as well) and there is no fix in sight at the moment.

I would consider that broken.

In the Runtime Changes Section: "Mobile and web platforms are not supported at the moment, and will be worked on for a future Godot 4 release." / "For the mobile platform specifically we are going to use the Mono runtime."

It may be outdated since the reason it no longer works is because of these C# changes, as mentioned in the article.
