I do wonder about the long-term effects of Deno being Node-compatible; will it result in only Node programming being done since "Deno will handle it fine" and thus Deno specific stuff will not be developed?

ironically, the more node js goes into Deno, the less likely I am to switch. imho they should stay the course and not include too much node stuff.

Deno being Node compatible is the "Embrace" in "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish".

Hi, thanks for this. Question: Do all Node APIs work as-is? For instance, I opened an issue for Deno stdlib's Conn interface to expose more state (like the ones available in Node: ready, half-open, writable, pause, resume, closed etc) for sockets, but those are unimplemented: https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/13636

deno has some benefits (fast, included ts, linter, formatter, etc.), but without node compatibility, i will not switch to deno.

Most Node APIs work just like they do in Node, yes. Some are not yet implemented (like the ones you mentioned). We'll be addressing them in priority order based on user feedback and how many NPM packages are blocked by the given feature.
