It’s the tool used to enshitification of Linux, that’s my problem. Tech and politics are indivisible. We’re on lemmy.ml so that should be a no-brainer.
Also, technically, it’s not very stable and there’s no alternative for the compiler.
Rust is the only reason I’m remotely interested in low level programming and potentially contributing to Linux. C and C++ are unreadable and vastly more confusing in terms of ecosystem to be worth dealing with for my own enjoyment. I don’t really understand the rust hate.
Others would say it’s open source who gaf what happens with it, the codes probably already in the training data for llms anyway. Depends on your philosophy of open source. I’d rather have gpl than mit, but I’d rather use rust than c I guess so such is my opinion
Ah yes a programming language determines the mental state and acuity of the person using it. This might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever read in my entire life. Are you sure you aren’t the one we need to test with such ludicrous ideas?
Not what I meant. The Rust language appeals a particular type of neuro type especially. And with that neurotype, there comes some specific design behaviours.
Why is Rust your problem here? It’s a fantastic language. The issue is licensing

The reason was pretty well stated already.
If your contribution were MIT licensed, some would rather you hadn’t written a single line of ecosystem destroying code.

Hrmmm. And I wonder what diagnosis you have or should be tested for…

There’s a “neurotype”… associated with liking a programming language? Are you some kind of nazi or something?
The language isn’t the problem. It’s the particular type of programmer it attracts.
