Cloudflare shutting down Deno is news, not just PR

lobste.rs original

I would like to try to clarify my moderation stance around:

Is this not the best place to discuss the ramifications of companies acting in this manner?

The post, as submitted, reads like a "report to market" similar to the one that Armon made when Hashicorp was aquired by IBM. While both companies clearly went their respective incredible journies, having discussions about the ramification and impact of this action on a submission which is explicitly called out as being off topic is off topic.

In Hashicorp's case, the discussion around the ramifications of the aquisition occured via the OpenTofu and OpenBao forks being discussed on the site in a much more "topical" fashion. My expectation that given the news is less than a day old (at the time of writing), we will see submissions which are more in line with the discussions that were had around OpenTofu and OpenBao for Deno's projects once the community has had a chance to process the news and coordinate on responses.
