For five years running, Rust has taken the top spot as the most loved programming language. TypeScript is second surpassing Python compared to last year. We also see big gains in Go, moving up to 5th from 10th last year.

Definitely not a fan of Microsoft controlling the most popular JavaScript alternative.
It trans-compiles to javascript, right? I think it would be easy to fork/replicate in case the project goes south. I wish they’d start an independent foundation though and I think you’re right that relying on microsoft is always comes with a risk.
Not sure how much an independent foundation would help if Microsoft is still the biggest member (which they will probably be).
Python’s Foundation is heavily sponsored by various corporations like Facebook (top sponsor) and so far we hadn’t seen any corporate push or issues, though python didn’t start as a corporate project. Typescript could definitely do the same.
