Not so sure about this. I see a good amount of acrimony toward C, C++, Go, Zig, etc. from the Rust side.
- mustache_kimono 4y agoI think "acrimony" among languages (not language communities) is fine, like "you don't have an Option type?" or "you don't guarantee I won't have a use after free?". I think saying the "The Go/Rust/Zig community is uniquely toxic" crosses a line. And, to be very clear, if Rust people do it, I think it's awful as well.
- sidlls 4y agoIt’s not unique to Rust’s community at all. I think they have relatively more visibility in places like HN, currently.
- timeon 4y ago> Zig In this case it seems to be mutual. Even open hostility from some leading members of Zig community. Which is shame because these two languages could nicely coexist.
