Linux wanted to be different than Windows and give the user total control. If the user wants to nuke their entire computer, they should be able to.

It did sound a bit like you were cheering for it, but I understood the message you were trying to transmit.
Not being a hip new language is an advantage on my books, and on many others’. PHP has been battle-tested and was once (and in a way, still is) a pillar of the internet. Stability always trumps novelty. Rust wasn’t exactly created with the internet in mind, but PHP was, and it’s way easier to find PHP developers than it is to find Rust developers (last time I checked).
Though the performance boost provided by Rust over PHP is not something to be ignored, though servers written in C or C++ have also been around for quite a while, and PHP still managed to trump many of them.
Things can still take a turn. There are a fuck ton and a half of pull requests still not pushed on the main branch that fopefully fix many issues.
Also, lemmy has been in development for quite a bit longer, so I wouldn’t give up on kbin yet. At least I won’t.
No problem, fellow KBinaut!
It’s a completely different codebase. Lemmy is written in Rust, while KBin is written in PHP. At least for now, there hasn’t been any issue this bad.
KBin just shows the data that the ActivityPub protocol sends. Anyone could create their own instance and see all reduces.
The KBin awards are akin to Stack Overflow’s award system, which I don’t mind, it’s a small fun system on the side. Reddit’s award system, on the other hand, can go back to the hell pit whence it came.
I most definitely did and helped the Data Hoarder archive.
It isn’t?
