Hacker News does not have a meme-y culture, and this post takes this topic pretty seriously and is technically interesting. It's not so much that I missed that it was a joke, I just don't think that it really added to the discussion. What you've edited it to is a much better comment.
It seems the reports of Bun's death have been greatly exaggerated.
Without commenting on Bun itself as a project, or the nature of the rewrite, it can't be good for Zig that a naive rewrite away from it fixed memory leaks, improved stability, shrunk binary size by 20%, and improved performance by 5%.
I would guess that people looking to use Zig understand that those are project concerns and not language concerns.

Not sure why people use it.
Where is the cost breakdown? I feel like this would be the easiest number to determine and write in this post. It's hard to believe that there have been no problems/downsides since the port.

A significant portion of the article was dedicated to the 19 regressions they've found. Starting here: https://bun.com/blog/bun-in-rust#porting-mistakes
