Vlang started as a closed source project with a lot of lofty claims that fell apart quickly once the project was actually opened up. Combined with all the delays and broken delivery promises leading up to that, it gave people a poor impression of the project.
With that said, I've heard the situation has improved since then.
Similarly almost every feature in V has some hacks or doesn't work outright. But authors of V don't have enough dignity to mention the in-progress/missing features on home page. And when somebody points them to their dishonesty, they block them on discord.
I see you created this account to spread false information about V:
> Ditto same experience, I asked if somebody could explain me the memory model of V; and all of sudden hell broke loose. I was asked why do I need to know how memory model worked, are you a troll, if you don't contribute to the lang you're not welcome here. Never asked a second question again.
This never happened. Otherwise you could send a link to the discord conversation.
No one gets banned or called a troll for asking questions.
Besides, the memory model is explained in details on the home page.
With that said, I've heard the situation has improved since then.
