I use Rust because I can’t spell Pyethon
It’s pi-tan
Pythong
No idea why I do that.
Every. Single. Time.
What that pythang do?
Serious reply to meme post incoming:
I love using rust and I think the reason for it is interesting. Because very few people actually care about memory safety without garbage collector (including me, I would gladly use a language with a garbage corrector as well).
For me at least, the actual reasons are
- It has familiar curly brace syntax without significant whitespace
- It has many functional language features, which I love
- Something something thread safety
- Managing versions and compatibility is extremely easy thanks to rustup and great backwards compatibility
- Getting set up with the tooling is very quick and easy
- The official lsp server just works and is really good
- The official formatter is heavily opinionated and I love it (never have to think about code formatting)
- The language is turning me into a cute girl
- Managing dependencies and packages is nice thanks to an official package manager existing and being really good
- Deployment is easy thanks to it compiling to a binary that depends on next to nothing
So yeah, what I like about rust doesn’t actually have too much to do with the language itself, more the experience around it, although I also really like the language itself. It’s just a very complete package.
I am one of the few people actually caring about the performance (I’ll start my PhD in HPC soon), but unfortunately, it isn’t that widely supported or used yet
It’s funny HPC is always cutting edge and 20 years old at the same time 😂 (I do love working in it though)
I especially like using tools built in rust because of point 10. It can even be compiled statically using musl, which I have found to be useful sometimes.
One of these is not like the rest
Yeah “Something something thread safety” isn’t a super well fleshed out point compared to the others. Not to demand extra work from OP, but all the other logic is just much easier to follow.
One of these is by far the biggest reason :3

So do you have any dependencies ? Wanna fork my repo and commit? 👉👈
I use Rust because C++ GUI frameworks stink.
and Rust has better ones?!
Different kind of stink.
But yeah, Slint, Iced.
You use rust
We are not the same
LOL!
I use Rust because everything else is way harder. The Rust compiler holds your hand and prevents so many bad software patterns from compiling in the first place.
I use Rust because I’m gay
You use Rust because you’re gay.
I use Rust because I’m trans.
We are the same.
omg yes bestie I am also trans
Hi gay, I’m dad
A crab is not a sun
Happy Trawler-Man noises
Anyone else playing the new Crab Champions update? How about that popcorn gun?
