We love open source, but it’s one of many options to weigh. They’re also a production user of Rust, which is a pro. It’s not that there are no cons, of course... there’s just really no perfect option in this space.
Surprising indeed. Why not to Matrix?
Rust is a well thought language and while I don't agree with the redesign, I like that you bring the thoughtfulness to the non-language component as well.
I enjoy your blog posts.
Ps: Your parent comment was opposed to discord not discourse.
Maybe Gitter instead of Discord? After GitLab acquired Gitter, they open-sourced it.
Thanks.
(and my sibling is right, they suggested that those who don't like IRC could use Discourse instead.)
