Its also possible that out of the people who hate on it, the people who haven't actually tried it outnumber the ones who have.
I agree. People need to chill.
Fair enough. Personally, I am a developer who only has worked professionally in C#. C/C++ scare me. I would get used to it if I were to use it professionally. on the other hand, I picked up rust as a hobby language for some low level stuff because I love the guardrails the compiler provides. I think rust would help make me a better C programmer TBH.
Do you have something against it? People hate on it like it's a fad or whatever. But, the people who like it, LOVE it.
Rust is the most admired language, more than 80% of developers that use it want to use it again next year.

8 years in a row. I can understand the perspective of someone who spent years honing their craft in C/C++ and not wanting to learn a new language. But, the Harassment of the "Rust in Linux Lead" is ridiculous. I'm not saying you are harassing. But, saying it's a tech bro thing is just negative and doesn't do justice to how many devs just like rust.
I could see that backfiring though..
To my understanding role players are really what's keeping it alive. I imagine they don't want to piss them off.
Steaming services don't give it to you for free with the only ads being for the premium version of their service that you don't really need..
I always flush with the lid down. Keeps less in the air.
I feel like nerds are not the people who use the wrong pronouns.. in my experience, it's jocks, rednecks, or more inclusively.. bigots.
If only they supported Linux better, or really like at all... I know you can grab the files and install without DRM. But, the whole lack of a client makes it a nuisance to use. I used to buy everything on GOG when possible. Since I got a Steam Deck that's changed. I shouldn't have to use Heroic Launcher IMO..
Home Automation. It can be as simple as buying a hub and some devices. But, I went the self-hosted route using Home Assistant to give me more control of what it can do.
I have some automations that turn on a certain set of lights on when the sun sets and off when it rises. It's pretty simple, but saves electricity because I used to leave my front porch light on 24/7.
I just set up an automation last night that sends me a discord notification when the laundry machine finishes and the same for the dryer. I can't hear the beeping because I am always too far from the laundry room. This one has me so excited!
I've seen people automate gardens which seems really neat. Really, your only limit is your imagination. I also just really like having an app on my phone to toggle power to random lights and fans around my house. It helps me get out of bed because I can turn the fan off when I'm cold in bed.
"Blazing fast" makes me check out so fast.
