Among other things, the fact Godot is so small is super impressive.

It's more like the fact other executables are so big that is unimpressive A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, it used to be that they were small disks, and exes had to be small, but then, disk size increased, and corpos were like "so, just pack more stuff, we don't care" and a corpo

if the engine is smaller now will this mean that exports will also be smaller ? or is that handeled differently

In addition to this, the macOS app will no longer be universal (meaning that it includes both intel and arm architectures). Instead, you’ll be able to download each Intel / Arm app separately! I didn’t check thoroughly but i believe this is like a 40% size reduction on macOS 🫣

It should be 50%, the universal one is literally two executables joined together, which I think are of similar size per arch.

no shared resources? wild
