They chose to use Bun, which is AI vibe coded slop.

Why are Proton trying their hardest to ruin themselves? They were doing fine, but have recently started rushing products out and we are starting to see the cracks.

What tool you suggest to bundle JS code into a single binary with runtime included? Bun was probably chosen because, I read, it makes that task easy.

Upd: I've used quickjs to precompile js into a binary, but that's a very niche use, not compatible with npm libraries for example.
