It's hard to say for most because, well, it's closed source. Unless they talk about it publicly like Discord, we won't know.
- pdimitar 4y agoDiscord is a commercial product that makes quite a lot of money though. Hardly a good example. Had it been something like `ripgrep` -- which is open but yeah imagine it wasn't -- then I'd immediately agree with you. And now I'm confused what point you're trying to make? I mean, commercial products written in many languages are closed source and I don't feel that reflects negatively on any of them.
- cercatrova 4y agoI'm not sure what point you're trying to make actually. You asked (as I understood it) for any Rust examples of closed source programs, for which I provided Discord. Now you're talking about how closed source does or does not "reflects negatively on any of them" which I never said anything about at all.
- pdimitar 4y agoAh, I was going to the root of your comment so assumed that you're posting it in support of the ridiculous claim that Rust users can't shut up about it. Sorry if it's a wrong assumption then.
