Cruller Is Not a Win for Zig. It’s an Open-Source Zombie Kept Alive by Bun’s Clout.
Cruller is a surgical extraction of Bun’s Zig runtime, not a continuation. It is not a win for Zig, but a desperate life-support machine surviving on the social capital of the ‘Bun’ name. Forks born from community fractures rarely survive unless they can attract entirely new contributors who don’t care about the original drama.
