I'm not saying that they don't do great work, but that twitter thread (https://x.com/ffmpeg/status/1924137645988356437 https://x.com/ffmpeg/status/1924137645988

I'm not saying that they don't do great work, but that twitter thread (https://x.com/ffmpeg/status/1924137645988356437 https://x.com/ffmpeg/status/1924137645988356437) is pretty obnoxious and reads like they are upset they didn't get funding. It's entirely possible that they are just difficult to work with and funders _don't_ want to fund them. "Because substantial amounts of human and financial resources go into these rust ports that are inferior to the originals. Orders of magnitude more resources than the originals which remain extremely understaffed/underfunded." -- https://x.com/FFmpeg/status/1924149949949775980 https://x.com/FFmpeg/status/1924149949949775980 "... And we get this instead: <xz backdoor subtweet>" -- https://x.com/FFmpeg/status/1924153020352225790 https://x.com/FFmpeg/status/1924153020352225790 "They [rust ports] are superior in the same way Esperanto is also superior to English." -- https://x.com/FFmpeg/status/1924154854051557494 https://x.com/FFmpeg/status/1924154854051557494 It's kind of sad to see that snarky attitude. Clearly the corporate sponsors _want_ a more secure decoder. Maybe they should try and work _with_ the system instead of wasting energy on sarcasm on Twitter?
