Wow! Didn't expect anyone from Deno team to respond. I just thought I was shouting stuff in the void for my fellow HN people at most reading it.
Thanks for the clarification.
I have some questions though:-
Aside from the fact that deno allows npm compatibility, how is deno deploy any better than cloudflare hosting which I currently use, since cloudflare workers also have some compatibility layer I suppose and cloudflare workers can and do host applications and edge functions both.
I can understand if things like nextjs which don't run as smoothly on cf workers, if at all (I haven't tried them but I do know that its easier to run nextjs on vercel than any other competitor), but nextjs can run easily on deno, so that might be a really big niche tbh
But as a sveltekit user, here's my opinion
I have deployed so many sveltekit websites to cloudflare workers, 100k limit never disappoints me or limits me, cf workers also has a kv which is good for simple databases. I am seriously considering to always use cloudflare workers since currently I am just a student and it gives me 100k requests per month limit and after that its still really really cheap.
I had compared deno's tier and cf tier's sometime ago and cf was the winner there, I don't know what's the situation now but I am willing to hear.
Cf workers wrangler developer-experience is genuinely decent in my opinion, not as easy as deno deploy I suppose but still its worth it given all the previous points.
Deno is really nice compared to node, I in fact was the guy who watched fireship video and then the deno video itself and then I legit went to my brother's room knocking on his door (my brother is also a coder, in fact he knows his stuff whereas I am just this 16 year old student) and I legit wanted him to try out deno. But I am having mixed opinions now and I don't mean any defamation of deno team who are really nice and kind for what I've seen.
Have a really nice day Andy. Hope deno achieves success.
