there is absolutely something stopping someone from porting opencode. opencode depends on bun, and for reasons that only mac users and javascript programmers understand, bun depends on bun now to build. bun does not work on any of the BSDs, and the effort to do the freebsd port upstream prior to this situation got dropped. as far as i can tell there is no plan by upstream to fix this. > > crush supports many providers.
