I would hope not. That would mean that no other vendor has shipped working ARM hardware support for Linux or has upstream support in the kernel. Forget the hostile nature Apple has proven to possess when consumers dare treat their hardware as if paying for it makes it their own.

Qualcomm has been beating the marketing drum on this instead of delivering. Ampere has delivered excellent hardware but does not seem interested in the desktop segment. The "greatest Linux laptop around" can not be some unmaintained relic from a hostile hardware company.

What adoption? Blog posts? Echo chambers? Rust peaked. The hype pushers don't want to believe it but that is the reality. Absolutely zero shade to Rust.

And Rust is the perfect lingua franca to accomplish this.

The demise of both of these trends cannot come soon enough.

These come up on search results if you combine Qt plus the language.

You should evaluate on whether it is worth insisting on Rust. Others have gone down that path and it has only ended with regret[1]. The sooner you realize that you don't have the right solution to your problem, the sooner you can start solving it correctly.

What about the crypto library affects how you would use Go to solve your problem?

> Many call for adding more to the rust standard library much like Go

> So now I pose the question to you what do we do?

1. Port your application to the language/tool that fits your needs like Go.

2. Hope that a language like Zig decides to feature a standard library as good as Go.

The timing of the recent batch of propaganda makes it hard to believe it's not coordinated. I wouldn't suggest paid actors but maybe just an attempt to counter some fairly visible and negative recent takes. The amount of "I love Rust but" comments make it hard to take the commentary seriously too.

> I just don’t care about karma that much. The first 500 is the only that matters. I find it hard to say that submitting a story that people found valuable is “abuse.”

The submitting account is automated and mostly non-deterministic. Forget the fake internet points and focus on the fact that there are accounts on this site that mostly exist to spam. Isn't the value of this site that humans curate what is posted? Or is automating submissions not a form of abuse? Good to know where your ethics are.

> This was posted by its author to /r/rust and then submitted here by someone because if a post does well over there, it often does well over here. That’s not “karma abuse”.

Except the submitter account in question is actually automating submissions from what looks like Lobsters (based on the timing and posting history). The account owner only seems to post non-automated comments to spam their product. This looks an awful lot like abuse. Or is abuse okay when you perceive it to be beneficial to Rust propaganda?

Your link is from 2023 and references 2022. (It is also much more of an advertisement for Rust than anything else.)

The one I shared before that is from late 2024. What are you trying to say other than Rust has peaked?

+1 for Stern especially since it only has Go dependencies whereas Kubetail does not. Ease of integration with an existing stack is a bigger addition than the lack of a web UI is a subtraction.

> I think Zig is mostly community-driven and seems to have some traction. Not Rust levels of traction but definitely relevance.

Zig already appears to have lapped Rust in areas like game development, GUIs, compilation speeds, C FFI, etc. and all that despite Zig not yet being 1.0. That means backwards compatibility is not guaranteed until then nor is the full feature set fully defined. Notwithstanding that 1.0 release, traction and relevance only seem to be a matter of time.
