If they made the headline something on the line of "replacing protobuf with a native, optimized implementation" would not get the same attention as putting rust in the title to attract the everything-in-rust-is-better crowd.
- desiderantes 9mo agoThat never happens. Instead, it always attracts the opposite group, the Rust complainers, where they go and complain about how "the everything-in-rust-is-better crowd created yet another fake headline to pretend that Rust is the panacea". Which results in a lot of engagement. Old ragebait trick.
- izacus 9mo ago"never" huh?
- DangitBobby 9mo agoPretty much. The tide of rust evangelism has been turned in favor of complainers for a while now. Nothing compared to JS and React hate, but still.
- satvikpendem 9mo agoYep. The Rust Evangelism Strike Force concept has long been dead for at least the past few years. In many aspects, Rust has become the "boring" technology, like Ruby and Rails.
- hu3 9mo agoAt the very least it gets more upvotes.
- timeon 9mo agoWell it is keyword for RSS feeds.
