Well I completely disagree with this. The C and C++ communities seem to me personally to be a lot more "elitist", engaging in extreme pedantry or dunking on each other over knowing obscure language trivia. Both the language and the community are beginner-hostile in comparison to Rust.
Not that the Rust community is perfect, because it's obviously not - but lack of "tolerance" has never seemed like one of the problems it has.
- p4ul 3y agoThis echos my personal experience as well. I would also add that there now seems to be more of an emphasis around being intentional in how languages foster community. The C and C++ communities (in my opinion) became how they are not by design, but mostly by accident or chance.
