- FrozenVoid 9y agoServo and most projects use nightly which breaks it all the time.
- redtuesday 9y agoBut you wrote "Rust has no backward compatibility" who cares what libraries/projects do?
- FrozenVoid 9y agoRusrc nightlies are the compiler. The only notable compiler i am aware of. There is no standard, ecosystem or any -std=v1.0 that old code can rely on. >who cares People who want to invest time in Rust.
- wtetzner 9y agoServo might use nightly, but do you have evidence that most projects do? Especially after custom derive landed in stable, most of the reason for sticking with nightly dissappeared.
