It's not marketing. It's just unproductive and incessant.
For example in this PHP post 3 days ago, ofc someone commented about how they ditched PHP and Go for Rust.

- pdimitar 8mo agoThis is a technical forum. People often flex on what they find better / faster / more productive. I've seen plenty of comments of people giving up on Rust and going for Go or Typescript for their internal company's tooling needs as well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- hu3 8mo agoThat's a nice way to handwave drive-by unproductive "rust btw" commnents. Sure there's comments on all spectrums. But rust commenters are on an extreme end of it when it comes to making sure the world knows how other languages are inferior and often their users too.
- pdimitar 8mo agoIf you show me 10 in the last month then we can talk on a more objective ground. As it is, you're parroting something that multiple people in this thread said they're not seeing. "Drive-by" comments exist in every thread, too.
- hu3 8mo agoThanks for yet another example if toxic behaviour by that community. So now arguing is also "parroting". If you were discussing in good faith, instead of belitling arguments as "parroting" you'd use something like algolia to find the answer for yourself. And you could have an easy start by finding comments from the links on this post alone. Let alone 10 in the entire HN in the last month. But that is of little interest I see. Funnily I already see some on the first page, incredible: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=true&query=rust&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=tr...
- pdimitar 8mo agoYou see what you want to see and I refuse to be dragged into a mud-slinging contest. Please reconsider your tone for the future. Start off better and we can chat.
- hu3 8mo agoAs I predicted, we'll have to agree to disagree. But not all is lost, the search link is there for those who want to educate themselves. And you "parroting" comment is exibit A of described toxic behaviour.
