It doesn't matter if only a portion is toxic, because that portion can easily poison the well all on their own for everybody.

It doesn't matter if only a portion is toxic, because that portion can easily poison the well all on their own for everybody.
- ironmagma 2y agoEspecially if that portion is in the official nonprofit associated with the language.
- LoganDark 2y agoEh, I don't personally consider the Rust Foundation to have anything to do with Rust The Language. I consider "the community" to be everyone who doesn't have official ties to the language. Is this incorrect?
- eviks 2y agoIt does matter because there is a portion that is toxic in about any sizeable community, so following that logic all wells would be easily poisoned
- LoganDark 2y agoAll wells are easily poisoned, though; Hyprland for example.
- eviks 2y agoWhy would you think an example of one well would prove anything about all wells?
- Sakos 2y agoIt matters how vocal and widespread that toxic portion is. In Rust's case, it's significantly larger and more visible and more toxic than I've seen in, say, the Python or C camps. > so following that logic all wells would be easily poisoned All camps are easily poisoned. What's important is how each community deals with the toxicity and whether they consider it acceptable or not. Rust's community has generally accepted this rabid part of it and tacitly accepted their behavior.
