What do you think of Discord's Rust rewrite?
>>
will rust stop the paedophile problem on the platform?
>>
>>110281002
The timing is conveniently Claude-shaped, and yet I can't help but feel like Discord's dev team is likely anti-AI because they're probably mostly trans. Is it slop or not?
>>
>>110281017
Stop it? They are facilitating it, just like roblox.
>>
>>110281040
No tranny would have build this shit in electron in the first place. They probably just hired some AI bros to replace the entire team
>>
>>110281002
Discord always sucked, it was always shitty and slow and full of bugs, and previously their updates prioritized stupid shit like changing the color of some buttons or some shit while their bugs went unfixed for years. Ever since i started using Claude I've often thought that discord could fire probably all of their "developers" responsible for their client and get Claude to develop the client instead and it would end up better than it's ever been in a single release cycle, and wow sure enough it looks like i was right
>>
>>110281002
That whoever uses those PCs is blind. Why is it so fucking large?
>>
>>110281002
I assume they also rewrote all the spyware crap so I still don't trust that shit to run it on my PC.
>>
>>110281017
The language being heavily pushed by all the troons? No.
>>
>>110281002
rust is fucking ugly and it takes up like 80GB of free space to compile a medium sized project.

terrible user experience, I don't know why the fuck people prefer it over C,

perhaps they are dumb idiots who cannot keep track of their allocated memory, and need an authoritarian nasty compiler to do it for them

dumb fucks, LMAO

>rust is fucking ugly and it takes up like 80GB of free space to compile a medium sized project.
How about... not abusing every single crate in existence like a complete retard?
>>
>>110281095
>>110281101
I don't like Rust either, but have you SEEN "modern" (20-something and up) C++? I'd still prefer Rust over that slop.
>why not C or C-like C++?
Good question, but mainly because most modern programmers can't handle it. Good luck filling a team with 30+ programmers who can do all that.
>why do you need 30+ programmers for a fucking chat app?
Also a good question.

TL:DR Rust is a necessary evil for this degenerated software industry.
>>
>>110281002
I can't run rust in my browser so I don't care
Actually I do care because it means the web experience will get even worse because they'll neglect it
>>
>>110281150
Good. Software should not run in a browser or on mobile devices.
>>
>>110281002
should have used haskell instead of this zoomer script language
>>
>>110281002
i don't use spyware
written in <lang> is irrelevant if you can't see the code.
>t. rustacean
>>
>>110281002
Still ten times more bloated and shitty than hobbyist written clients including one that can run on 30 year old computers.
>>
>>110281002
It loads in the browser in like 2 seconds.
>>
>>110281101
>rust is fucking ugly and it takes up like 80GB of free space to compile a medium sized project.
are you going to provide proof in this thread. or hide again?
also, discord is closed-source retard. you ain't compiling it.
>>
>>110281150
>i want to run the spyware in a browser
>what is wasm
>>
>>110281017
they just pedo faster
>>
>>110281348
>hobbyist written clients
tell me more
>>
>>110281515
Some guy made a windows client that uses a native win32 GUI.
>>
>>110281568
What's it called?
>>
>>110281432
>>what is wasm
proof of webshitters completely losing the plot about what a web browser is supposed to be used for
>>
>>110281596
No idea, ask google.
>>
>>110281002
I don't think about discord or rust because I am not a transexual.

are you literally some rando retarded idiot?
it is not a secret that Rust is slow to compile and it produces HUGE artifacts..
please fucking lurk more idiot.

>latest complaint that just today I came across,

and that is from everyone who uses Rust for some medium-big project,


if you script kiddie morons stay on your basic bitch ass 2K lines of hello world then sure you won't complain about bloat

idiot

How long until someone slops up an exploit that exposes everyone's private messages?
>>
>>110281002
Can I use it already?
>>
>>110282316
>it is known
great. then it shouldn't be hard to prove your SPECIFIC claim and name the medium sized project that took 80GB of free space to build.
>>
>>110282448
you lost tranny
>>
>>110282481
your options:
1. name the project so your claim can be verified.
2. admit that your a retard who fell for a meme.
>>
>>110281002
well, I think I wanna know what it was written in originally
>>
>>110282536
its an electron application
>>
I think people should move to fluxer. It's economically viable as they are making 100k USD a month on subscriptions.

It has feature parity with discord, has a complete mobile app, it's open source and you can self host and it's exactly like discord.
>>
>>110282516
Not that anon, but the rust compiler itself needs AT MINIMUM 30GB of space to compile. Depending on the flags set, that goes up to 100GB
I have no idea why you're trying to claim Rust doesn't bloat the disk on compilation, there's no global cache so the more rust projects you have the worse it gets.
