For me, the go-to solution for this problem is to avoid third-party dependencies as much as possible. This is probably not an option for rust project given how anemic the authors of Rust's standard library want their library to be, but it is definitely an option when using other languages with fully featured libraries. I rarely use external libraries (other that database drivers) because I deliberately work with languages that have all the things I need built in.
