First time I heard about V was because of the Volt desktop chat app: https://volt-app.com/ which seemed attractive at the time. Turns out it was completely closed source and read secrets from local browser's cookie storage without any kind of warning. I've never nope'd out of a program so fast. There are others in this comment section claiming this language is scam. Seems about right. The entire Vinix page is slop, too. | ||

If I remember correctly the language promised automatic memory management without downsides, but then instead of implementing that magical feature they started working on a GUI library and whatnot. Apparently now they've moved onto a whole OS while the autofree feature is still "experimental" | ||

It had like two releases after ~2-3 years of hype, too. Maybe long, back when it was called eul. | ||
