The last three months have not looked good for Bun. It started as one of the most impressive individual engineering projects I have seen, but has now turned into this weird AI-powered creature with continuous false promises and an increasingly frustrated community.

In the past month, 15.8k commits came from "robobun," 1.6k commits from "autofix-ci[bot]," and 790 commits from Jarred.

No chance anybody is reviewing those. Worse, nobody else can reasonably inspect or review changes. I suspect even from release to release, you're looking basically at a new codebase, the next release invalidating all your previous assessment, and release to release assessment to be impossible.

16/30 = 533 per day. I don't know when 1.3 was, but even just the three month delay means 48k commits. Who knows how many changes per commit. Crazy numbers.
