Probably, it would be good to do other things than trying to troll or presenting distorted information. It is very easy to go to GitHub and check Insights ( https://github.com/vlang/v/pulse ). Vlang's commits

You chose threads primarily from 2019. We are now in 2022. So threads and comments from 3 years ago are mostly not relevant. Some threads are even prior to Vlang ever being released (March 2019 comments versus release date of language in

Google is a monster that people should know not to trust. Better to not use a Google account for anything serious or unless you really have to. Even then, expect and prepare for the worse. Way too many, "Google locked me out.",

Agreed. I was thinking this thing would be a bust or expecting some type of catastrophe, so nice to see none of that happened. This has undoubtedly exceeded the expectations of many.

Really glad that everything is progressing smoothly. Very much looking forward to what they might discover.

There is a difference between not releasing the source yet versus closed source. Often, closed source refers to not ever going to open the source, including commercial interests. In regards to not yet releasing the source, things can be i

First, nobody should take what you have posted as an honest assessment, because your username is for the explicit purpose of trolling. Running around with the name "vlang1dot0", demonstrates a commitment to being a hardcore troll

I kind of get what you mean, but the common practice is to spell it as Vlang, which other languages that are referred to by short names do too. Like Go, becomes Golang as oppose to Go-lang. But, we all have our preferences. Who knows, it

Besides the obvious trolling, much of this is your interpretation and what you want the developers of Vlang to say instead. Let's keep in mind that others can have different interpretations, opinions, or things they like to nitpick ab

There isn't any reason why Vlang can't have both autofree and boehm-gc. I don't understand the "must be this or that only" logic being applied to it. Other popular programming languages also have multiple memory m

by Tozen 5y ago
Vlang has multiple methods of optional memory management. This should not be so hard to grasp, as this is the case for other languages too. Take Nim, for example. It has several: gc:refc, gc:markAndSweep, gc:boehm, gc:go, gc:arc, etc... V

There is a lot of competition among the newer programming languages. A lot of criticism and trolling is to disguise their invested interest and advocacy for their preferred language. That Vlang rose up so quickly and has done so well for

It is very impressive that the creator of Vlang can come here to face the critics, trolls, and bashers. That tells you something positive about his character and fortitude. What is also very interesting, is that when various trolls make th

Exactly. Yet and for example, Zig and Nim articles are posted at will without issue. Recently, Zig related ones have been very numerous, as if people had invested stock into it. In contrast, Vlang related ones often get flagged for unkno

Good point. It's odd how certain people get so fired up to bash and troll Vlang, then also state they never use it or refer to some controversy from 3 years ago that has lost its relevancy. Additionally, somehow other newer languages

by Tozen 5y ago
Why was this misspelled? Shouldn't it be Vlang ( https://vlang.io/ ), not V-Lang?

It is better to actually use the language, particularly as it is presently, versus refer to old disputable controversies from years ago. There are no false claims on their website (in my opinion), though of course there will be things peop

Sadly, most jobs meet the definition of "shitty". Likely only the top 20% or so of any industrialized country will have people working jobs that could be described as satisfactory and enjoyable. It is a reflection of modern soci

A lot of the so-called Vlang controversy appears to have been disguised allegiance and competition between the newer languages. Looks more like various people defending their interests. Languages like Odin, Zig, Nim, Crystal are far older

by Tozen 5y ago
Besides Rust and Zig, you might want to check out Vlang and Odin, who are in the same category.

by Tozen 5y ago
Zig is not the only one. Other newer languages like Vlang, Odin, Rust, Nim... offer strong C interop.

Very good point. For Python enthusiasts, Nim positions itself nicely as a next step. I don't think Nim will ever reach the heights that Python has amazedly found itself at, but do think there is going to be a bit of "gravitation

Very good points. Including the shadow banning that takes place here and everywhere. Different opinions and views are increasingly censored by those that are empowered. "Power corrupts". Unless a fair system is in place of che

I get the impression that D has languished because it never placed itself as a language good for application development. In contrast, look where Pascal/Object Pascal (Delphi) went. When Pascal/Object Pascal got nudged out by C&
