Calling this "a really great"web app is a significant stretch. It's an extremely bare bones clone of GitHub. Another case of over promising and under delivering from the V team.

I would like to believe Gitly is a really great web app. The problem is, how can I trust the claims that have been made about Gitly, when I have reason to distrust the group making the claims?

Christine's blog posts indicate V lang is blatantly over promising and under delivering. You can't claim a language is memory safe, when it has trivial memory safety issues. You can't claim a language compiles 1.2m LoC in a second, when it takes about 3 seconds to compile 50k LoC. If they said these are the goals for the language in the future, that's a different story but they did not say that. This was 2 years ago, so maybe things have changed and V lang is no longer over promising, but I don't have the stats on hand to back it up and so I remain skeptical. I like the idea of Gitly but I can't trust it does all they claim right now, given V lang's past.

If you have any stats on V lang fixing these issues, I'd honestly love to see them. Being able to deliver on all of these promises, would make V lang an extraordinary achievement.
