This was my impression too and it looks like they've made really impressive progress since I last saw them on HN. Their bug list [0] looks kind of scary, but that's maybe par for the course for a language? I remember the bad old days of Go's 32-bit GC not being wonderful for example.

Would be good to go check out their documentation and/or modules, to get a feel for the language: https://github.com/vlang/v/blob/master/doc/docs.md https://modules.vlang.io/

The documentation and modules are truthful. What they have claimed to set out to do, is what they are doing and where they are going.
