I'm a happy wasm user, last week I was looking at adding support for psd file on my app [1], the choices was in between using a full js lib that is almost 1MB large, doesn't work very well and is slow OR leverage some C stuff. Without any kind of optimisation, the wasm version is 10 times faster and 5 times smaller and that's before digging through SIMD. There will always people complaining about a lot of things but wasm is already fine enough for a lot of use cases

Hope my post didn't come across as complaining because I agree! Wasm is great right now for lots of things, just wanted to highlight a use case that isn't great yet.
