Nothing gives you long term stability in tech. You have to constantly work at staying stable, and it isn't always up to anything the company is in control of, no matter what ownership they have.

Sure. But everything is relative. For instance, Node has much more likelihood of long term stability than Bun, given its ownership.

Given how many more dependencies you need to build/maintain a Node app, your Bun application has a better chance of long term stability.

With Node almost everything is third party (db driver, S3, router, etc) and the vast majority of NPM deps have dozens if not hundreds of deps.

		I’m talking about long term stability of the tool and ecosystem, not of any specific app.

Sure, that makes it a good backup strategy. But there’s little reason to use a worse tool until the time you need the backup comes.
