- avgcorrection 4y agoSnottily states that the Rust community loves having too many dependencies and that the cutesy names are stroke-inducing. And you think the replies to that are aggressive?
- cillian64 4y agoThe comment would probably do better if it was phrased more like “Rust projects usually have lots of dependencies, and a lot of them have unhelpful names, and this is bad because XYZ”. This comment isn’t trying to offer constructive criticism or add to the discussion, it is just mocking rust and its users. The tone makes me a lot more likely to downvote it and move on rather than engaging in discussion. For context, I totally agree that rust often ends up with more dependencies than I would like and that crate names are often super unhelpful, but I downvoted the comment.
- fbanon 4y agoAgreed. The Rust community took a disappointing direction in the past few years...
