  • Yeah its a lemmy thing now. Every comment that is younger than 5 minutes it shows like this

  • Its literally a quantum computer with extra costs XD

  • Yes narnia, would be perfect place to host server stuff XD

  • Yeah it happens sometimes to me with specific games

  • We do try it ( if possible ) everything out on our dev instance. The automation and upgrading.

  • And pinguins

  • Lets go! Congrats on the upgrade of the hardware!

  • Great explaination why python is not super good for such big project.

  • Because of that sublinks got created.

  • Correct. But those accusations that java was a bad choice i just cant have it. This isnt "I love Rust" or "I love XYZ Programming language" it was "F*ck you for using java".

  • Good, then find some guys to develop lemmy faster, reliably and bigger. With lemmys pace of features, it will be taken over by faster developing platforms, where they can have more and more features ready and deployed where the lemmy devs still wait until they get enough donation to implement any crucial feature.

    Sublinks decision was based on: How fast and reliably can they build a lemmy backend replacement, java is the only possible option there. There are many devs, Language is mature, reliable and not a hipster language like rust.

    Of course if they did that in rust they would be same level, but then would be the question why not contributing to lemmy directly.

    If performance and memore is so dramatically NASA rocket computer limited, than why not use assembly. Its the fastest, memory efficient and speaks directly to the computer.

  • Yes like you said, everybody understands their favorite language better than others.

  • Popular? Objective C is still popular and more demanded than Rust.

  • So far its new, not well integrated into the market and no one wants it. Its even less demand from the market than i thought.

  • Yeah because of that i said IF you develop your java application correct...

    If that is correct, than you have no issues of any kind. That statement is correct. But like you said, no one is perfect, but rust would be a more difficult language than java and less documented. For a stable, predictable and reliable software your programming language needs maturity, stability and a community to support it. Most of it rust doesnt have.

  • Its more easier than to write it in a language not made for a RestAPI.

  • Correct.
