Hi! Thank you for writing and publishing this project! Just to clarify: no part of my critique was aimed at you or your choices in this codebase. My main point is that unlike the original commenter in this thread, i believe that well written C is not as clear and simple as well written rust (or other modern languages). I then tried to back that up by cherry picking a random line of “c-like” code from your codebase. My beef is with C, not you or anybody else using it :)

That makes complete sense, and I don’t take it personally. It’s been so cool to read all this valuable feedback! I must say that I’m very comfortable in C, only because it’s where I landed up as a kid. I actually find it way less confusing than more “modern” languages (I kinda skipped OO etc.!), and I enjoy the “control” it gives. Maybe you can’t teach an old dog new tricks after all! ;-)
