    The irony of this meme being posted from a platform written in rust is pretty great ngl

      I get the joke, but rust is actually pretty heavily used in the backend of services theae days. Cloudflare, Amazon, Dropbox, just to randomly name a few off the top my head. Have pretty heavily invested it into their back ends for more reliable service.

        A platform that is doing a great job so far but which (unfortunately) isn't as relevant yet to call it a pillar of modern infrastructure. 😉

                    Rust is fearlessly upholding the whole thing even without touching it. Incredible!

                      docker doesn't really fail to build unless something upstream fails, like lib builds that don't have the proper dependencies installed. I'd still count those failures as rust fails 😂

                      that said, I worked with a kid that was trolling rust package managers hard by squatting on common library names because they refused to resolve the issues of squatting. dick move but clearly educated me on the toxicity of the rust community and why I should avoid it.

                      In my experience, the Rust community is pretty welcoming. Like, it's actually a meme that trans women code in Rust for that reason.

                          Yeah, in particular, you can write libraries in Rust, which can be used in virtually any other programming language, similar to how you can do in C and C++. And given that not a ton of young kids learn C/C++, there's a chance that the majority of important cross-language libraries (like OpenSSL, SQLite etc.) are written in Rust in a decade or two.

                              just because they are accepting of people based on gender identity doesn't mean toxicity cannot exist.

                              terfs are a great example of that.

                                    Over the last one or two years I feel like Rust haters have gotten even louder than the Rust evangelists. For every person who declares "Rewrite it in Rust!" I see two or three people saying how they hate Rust or how pointless it is and so on.
