Re: "[gemini link] I've been using Rust for about five years..."

Comment in: s/programming

@gemalaya I think it's Go. It's not perfect but I love it for various reasons (most of them translate into good productivity) and I have success stories with it at work. I use it when I can compromise on executable size and sacrifice some performance (i.e. when I can't just minimize memory allocations, etc' in hot paths) to gain easy collaboration, easier development overall and a good performance+scalability vs. attention to detail ratio (especially when I mentor a junior developer). Most of my toy projects, including my Gemini client, are still in C I think I should fully translate at least one to Rust (or zig?) instead of giving up at an early stage.

@dimkr Cool. I have nothing bad to say about Go, one of my favourite projects, kubo (IPFS implementation) is written in Go.

I'm into GUI development, this is what i wrote recently (Gemini browser written in QML):

[gemini link] I've been using Rust for about five years now, but I'm beginning to sour on it. I'm curious about perspectives here.
