And even without that, high-quality module systems and tooling make your code extremely portable, for both Bun and Deno. I run a Deno server for a small project and I don't host it on Deno Deploy

Which- this is one of my favorite things about this ecosystem, and especially these projects! It's Just Code, with a single system dependency, and you can run it in one place just as easily as any other

But that means you can't corral devs into your own hosting service, which makes it a tough business to make money in

IMO these kinds of projects just can't work as a startup. They need to be either community-led, or incubated within a larger business that uses them instead of trying to sell them

Hopefully one or both can make a transition if/when their business model fails to take off
