- jstx1 4y agoMy point is that they're putting a lot of unnecessary effort and attention into being negative about something that they don't have to use anyway. The author is making a living out of being a full time Rust online personality - https://fasterthanli.me/articles/becoming-fasterthanlime-full-time https://fasterthanli.me/articles/becoming-fasterthanlime-ful... - maybe these unnecessarily controversial takes help them attract more attention and make a bit more money.
- fasterthanlime 4y ago"Author is riling up the masses for clicks which generates revenue for him" is the conspiracy theory. It costs me money to serve the site and results in, at worst, DDoS attacks, and at best, hateful comments towards me. "Author has built an audience around quality educational material that goes more in-depth than most others, and occasionally allows himself a rant" is closer to reality. But, feel free to believe whatever you like better.
