- sanxiyn 5y agoRust was created to improve the situation where web browsers are written in C++. (I hope we can agree this is bad.) It was not created to impress you.
- dralley 5y agoThe combined total of Rust, C, and C++ is only about half of the Firefox codebase. So it's more like 20% (of the code that it might theoretically replace). Because the code written in HTML and Javascript isn't going to be rewritten in Rust another language, probably ever.
