This feels more like a reaction to Zig's anti-LLM policy than anything. Anthropic would probably like to contribute something back to Zig at some point, but I doubt anyone would ever believe their PRs were not written by Claude.

Exactly, this is a direct response to Zig refusing to accept pull requests from Bun (and Anthropic). That situation forced Bun to maintain a fork of Zig, and it makes sense in the long term that they'd rather port their entire project to Rust.

I've really enjoyed Bun the past year or so, but the acquisition by Anthropic, Bun's codebase and documentation increasingly becoming AI slop, and this impulsive complete rewrite - all of it has ruined it for me and I'm actively moving off of Bun. I don't feel comfortable relying on it any longer.

Zig said they wouldn't have accepted the changes without AI either.

You're right, I was just now reading the full explanation. https://ziggit.dev/t/bun-s-zig-fork-got-4x-faster-compilatio...

This makes me respect Zig team's stance more, that it's a technical decision more than an ideological one.
