On the one side I really like c and c++ because they’re fun and have great performance; they don’t feel like your fighting the language and let me feel sort of creative in the way I do things(compared with something like Rust or Swift).

On the other hand, when weighing one’s feelings against the common good, I guess it’s not really a contest. Plus I suspect a lot of my annoyance with languages like rust stems from not being as familiar with the paradigm. What do you all think?

    You’re in the wrong place if you want to pitch C over Rust 😅

      The… programming community?

      I might adopt Rust, I have no hard feelings against it, I just like not fighting with the compiler and having the fastest execution possible.

      But hey, even Lemmy needs some hot takes to keep it lively.
