Dang, context?
https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/[email protected]/ this reply and its parent thread should give enough context. I was going to say you can get more info on his side of the argument on his Mastodon page, but it appears he has taken it down
tl;dr: he wanted some implementation in Rust, people said “but I don’t understand rust”, he said it doesn’t matter because those people don’t have to maintain it, nothing moved forward and he gave up.
Seconded, would love some more context
Edit: Apparently there was Rust drama, again, in the past few days
Seems like drama follows these rustacians wherever they go
That’s what happens when you woke out and become more focused on arguing instead of coding
Comments are gold lol. You heard it first here folks, Rust is Woke.
Typical Phoronix comments. Go under any somewhat controversial topic and you’ll find stuff
I think it’s good tbh.
Why?
Look at his post history and you’ll know why.
The mainstream kernel is pretty evil now imo.
I’ve only ever seen people be anti rust, never anti kernel. Can I ask when the kernel became evil?
I think it was fine before 2024. Last year Linus made a geopolitical decision and I think there was another incident but I can’t remember it now. Because of that I consider using custom kernels without such issues generally better.
You don’t like the exclusion of Russian developers? I feel like more hands is always good, but I don’t really care that much.
You don’t like the exclusion of Russian developers?
I indeed do not. Any bias in development always hurts the quality of the project and reduces security.
