> Maybe it’s because it’s sorta kinda off topic? Could be, but I find this strange as well. I don’t remember a discussion on HN about any programming language at all without people commenting about Rust. Don’t remember them being downvoted. P.S. As to why I wrote the comment — the article invited the “status quo” stories, so I decided to share my perspective.
