The debate surrounding Deno's future is intensifying, with varying perspectives. David Bushell criticized Deno Deploy's scaling issues, noting a drop from 35 to 12 regions, and highlighted stagnation in development of other Deno products. Contrarily, Dahl defended Deno by pointing out that the reduced regional presence focuses on optimizing performance, speed, and compliance rather than sheer volume. He acknowledged limitations of Deno KV but emphasized its usability and ongoing efforts to expand its capabilities in state management. This highlights the contrasting views on Deno's direction in the tech community.

Deno 2's robust Node compatibility effectively removed a major adoption barrier, unblocking a wide range of serious use cases, for one.
They need to be fast, close to their data, easy to debug, and compliant with local regulations. We are optimizing for that.
It's not a general-purpose database, and it doesn't replace relational systems for most applications. Developers love it for what it is: a zero-config global store that just works.
