It could be. But then again, he did have the help of a Rust designer/core dev. I believe they even wrote the first iteration of the "Jakt" compiler in Rust before rewriting it in Jakt itself, so Andreas isn't against using Rust.

Thank you!

I am pretty sure it was about how it was difficult for them to do oop with rust, but I reckon it was long ago and my programming knowledge is minimal.

Found it:

I vaguely remember the talk about needing oop for the web being on discord and not twitter, so the twitter post is likely a reaction that.

I thought US laws only used Latin for it's brain shattering legalese terms. I make a fool of myself yet again 🥲

Thanks for the info.

I never really understood what the hell these sovcits say because English ain't my native language and I can't understand a word of legalese even in my mother tongue, so I didn't really bother with it's English counterpart. Seeing the French word for "link" being randomly used here tell me that all they're saying is just pure bullshit to sound smart.

You're doubting someone's ability to create a web browser knowing that they specialize in browser development since the early 2000s?

If this isn't enough to have confidence in them then nothing will.

The dev has 30 years of experience with c++ and a lot of it was on browsers.

He tried to incorporate rust with the help of "JT", one of the original rust designers/devs and according to Andreas it didn't work that well due to the web being too objet oriented or something like that. They both worked together (well, mostly "JT") to create a new safe programming language called "yakt" that transpile to c++, but the project is currently pretty much dead because nobody is really working on it anymore.

If only.

I know about servo. It was pretty much a dead project until they joined the Linux fondation last year and started getting some sponsorship. Since then, they being doing pretty good on there own with personal donations rising by around 20% each month, reaching more than 2000$ monthly. Wish them all the best!

We also have a fork of money, it's called crypto and it's used to sell and buy hookers and drugs. Every fork of something end up used to buy hookers and drugs. Truly marvelous!

I share the disappointment.

1. (BSD vs GPL) Andreas stated on twitter that he wanted to give devs total freedom to use his work because when he worked at Apple he felt frustrated he couldn't incorporate some code/software into his work because of GPL.
2. (Why?) The aim is not to create a chrome competitor, but to make a good enough, truly free browser that isn't either chrome or funded by chrome. A browser made for and by its user's.
3. (Discord) Because of gen-z.
