Announced the whole Deno team is joining Cloudflare, alongside a desktop clipboard API and widened Node compatibility across 2.9.3–2.9.6.

**The Deno team is joining Cloudflare.** The announcement covers the runtime, the toolchain, and Node.js compatibility work, with the team moving to Cloudflare to carry it forward.

**Desktop apps gained clipboard and richer menus.** A clipboard API and menu items that carry checked, icon, and tooltip state landed in 2.9.6. HMR now runs through React Router's own dev server.

**Node compatibility widened.**

- Raw ChaCha20 ciphers in `crypto.createCipheriv`
- `byteLength`/`length` parameters on `Buffer.indexOf`, `lastIndexOf`, and `includes`
- `Blob`/`Body` `textStream()`

**CLI and compile targets expanded.** `deno add` gained `--unscoped`, `--no-save`, and `--save-optional`, and `deno task --members` runs tasks in workspace members only. `aarch64-pc-windows-msvc` is now a compile target, an experimental QuickJS backend landed, and V8 moved to 150.2.0.
