  • This contradicts what I’ve heard others say about it. I have a feeling it is quite subjective, and this might just be an anecdotal recommendation because you have an easy time with it. Maybe I will too! But maybe I won’t.

    Either way, one part of me really wants to try it, but one part has very little time in life. 🥲

    Also comparing it to C++ might not be the flex we think it is. 😅


  • Probably would still use TypeScript, because I use that for work. 🤷‍♂️ Rust just seems like… a lot. Regarding Rust, I’ve seen a lot of praises and a not so insignificant amount of complaints that make me very hesitant to take the plunge. Can’t remember off the top of my head what it was, specifically, but it was enough for me to write it off, that much I remember.


  • Well, that’s an incorrect interpretation of what it says.

    I make no mention of the word “gated” or any other synonym of that. Those are your words, and it’s an incorrect extrapolation of what I’m saying. I make heavy use of words like “help”, and I talk about it coming from our direction.

    The help should be voluntary, I will concede, but I think it would be fine if it were opt-out. Maybe a lot of people won’t notice an opt-in variant, so Mozilla would get a lot less usage data.

    There’s a big difference between supporting something “being gated” in and of itself, and supporting helping out an organization that has a very noble mission statement (as far as I understand it anyway). That’s the way I see it. 👍
