Just remembered, you now work at cloudflare! I remember reading your blog post about joining cloudflare, so how's it going so far?
I've been enjoying it. My team is great, we're building cool stuff. Being a PM is different, but I like it a lot. Thanks for asking :)
I wonder if any popular applications for a mobile platform ship with Rust code already.
There have been some instances of this before; at least one game was implemented in Rust. But, given the length of the Warp waitlist, I'm pretty sure this is the most popular application so far. There could be things I don't know about though, at this point Rust is big enough that not everyone who uses it talks about it publicly.
Isn't Firefox using at least some Rust on the Android version?
I forget the status of that, you may be right! That'd be a large deploy too. The intention was to do that, for sure, I'm just not sure if it shipped or not.
I think that for Rust to really take off in that space, we'll need comprehensive, auto-generated bindings for the platform APIs. Are there any serious efforts in that area yet?
