the new paper app is faster and that is from someone who usually hates gnome apps because of lack of setting option.
(even this app has that issue with gnome-brain UI that put the night mode on the left side sidebar option removed from all other options that are on the right side)
I understand the motivation behind people that think rust is a good language to write software in as it has better memory safety but I don’t think everythink needs to get rusted.
but I understand even less the people that make fun of passionate people that like rust and like safer software.
at first the meme was rust is a cult.
now the meme is those who made fun of them are a meme.
I read this article with the expectation that it was a fair pro-con examination.
and it had some bit that was very good point (like the discord part) but the theme of the article was just rust is bad because I say rust people are pod people.
this is not a good technical discussion.
and I ,as a non-programmer that have used linux for that last 20 years and like to follow software trends, like that rust is making a large part of security problems of apps be less severe.
You’re clearly using AI in your posts (no hate). I knew you’d leverage that to give me a nice rundown of the situation. I do plan to install both gnome paper and ocular from this thread. And the kde app because others suggest I at least try it. And now I’m inexplicably feeling the desire to learn rust…

Look, I put that out there to see what would happen. Don’t write a dissertation to defend yourself; just tell me to fuck off.

but that would be rude. I just wanted to promote an app that I quite like (it is faster than the kde app I used)
