Git has the advantage for the user, that there is no lock in effect, how about your approach :)?

Yes we do not have that. Hopefully if you're using Val Town you're getting a lot of out the interface and platform and this is just another api surface. If you want to pull your code and files and run them elsewhere that should be easy. Git sync to and from projects should be straightforward enough to implement (once we ship the public API) and our runtime is easy enough to replicate by running things with Deno directly.

This was definitely an "easier for us to run, good for the product experience" decision. Freedom comes elsewhere :)
