Interesting! Is there anything publicly known about why they moved away from isolates? Seemed like that would give them better economics, and without they’re a hosting provider like any other?

They haven't published anything about "why we moved away from isolates", but they are happy to talk about the better Node compat, database support, and new CI/sandbox stuff that moving to VMs enables.

kinda, there's a pretty clean internal split between Deno core + cli + the various Web/Node APIs, Deno is implemented much nicer internally than Node or Bun. but ultimately a runtime company with a cloud platform that's only 95% compatible with their runtime doesn't make much sense.

Only regression so far is that the comments from Bluesky have stopped populating in bridgy fed, so they don’t show on my page
