Every community has these assholes. In my experience, the Rust user base is nothing but polite, understanding and pragmatic. There's no smugness, explicit or implied. The Rust lore is just a joke that's getting less funny every day someone takes it seriously.
- wolvesechoes 7mo agoYet, almost every Rust thread here serves as a evidence that your experience doesn't reflect reality.
- speed_spread 7mo agoFrankly, I see _a lot_ more uninformed attacks on Rust than actual Rust evangelism / snobbery. And most of these anti-Rust comments reek of personal insecurities and low-effort trolling. Like saying that Java is slow. It's getting old real quick.
- ch_123 7mo agoI feel like it's far easier to find more zealously anti-Rust people than zealously pro-Rust people - hating Rust has almost turned into a meme.
- gorjusborg 7mo agoThey are people of very similar mentality, with opposing sensibilities. The rest navigate quietly, bobbing in the rippling wakes of their passionate fighting.
- alecco 7mo agoTechnically, I prefer Rust but I understand people who find Go better suited for their work. For example, devops is mostly Go nowadays and that makes more sense than Rust (or Python). But I've never, ever seen toxic behavior from the Go community. For Rust, it's the norm, sadly.
