My understanding: - The bad press was because the initial public release on GitHub did not implement most of the things seemed like they're implemented, (Rust like memory safety etc.) - Over time it actually saw contributions from a lot of people and is kind of decent now, be it not as polished as Go, Rust, D etc. - It is super easy to use, so kind of attracts an audience. | ||||||||||||||

The bad press was because after some people tried to call them out for not shipping features that were claimed in the release, those people were banned from further contribution/commenting on github. | ||||||||||||||
