The same criticism has been said of Deno and Pnpm and bun, and yet, despite all these years since their respective releases, node and npm remain slower than all three options.

Yeah, but do they work? Last time I gave bun a chance their runtime had serious issues with frequent crashes. Faster package installation or spin-up time is meaningless if it comes at the cost of stability and compatibility.

		bun is my go to for npm packages; it’s so much better and faster than npm, it’s not funny. Never had any issues.

Well, pnpm solves the storage issue, which is a more pressing reason to use it. (I don't know about deno/bun)
