Interesting that the new freenet is written in rust.
I always thought the worst part of freenet was that it required java.
I haven't used freenet in a long time. Last time I did I'm pretty sure satoshi was posting the og bitcoin releases on the message board (freechat?). Crazy times.
- sanity 2y agoYeah, there was a decent argument for Java in the early 2000s before it was obvious that Java would fail to gain traction on the desktop. Rust was the obvious choice when I started work on the new Freenet in 2019.
