Rust has nothing to look for in the current Linux kernel. The kernel is C. Multilanguage is a mess nobody wants. Either we go all in, all rust and port everything, or we use C. This will not happen overnight, but I do not see a way to mix them both. - Personal Opinion Nobody Wanted or asked for.

@centopus well, feel free to port @AsahiLinux 's patches to .

As for , IDGAF in general.

Public

@kkarhan All i see, is a deadlock nobody has a reasonable solution to. @AsahiLinux @OS1337

Public

@centopus not really.

As for @AsahiLinux and their ; that's entirely upon @linuxfoundation and @torvalds allowing - to flex and sabotage the effort...

Public

@kkarhan I have too little in-knowledge to continue this discussion.

What is done, that is done. Asahi relies on rust code.

I'm just feeling, that c and rust mixing will come out biting us in the behind.

We experience the fallout of/and the public discussions. What happens in private will decide on future.

@centopus again, I consider this the other way around.

The whole against is as absurd as the hate against [www.youtube.com] and , because if and were viable people would've fixed them.

And @AsahiLinux delivered results at neck-breaking speeds thx to & @lina ...

Public

@kkarhan If you're right. All we need it time. I hope its as simple and you are right. @AsahiLinux @lina

@centopus personally, I see @AsahiLinux as a "canary" project in that regard.

@linuxfoundation and @torvalds need to enshure that toxicity and neighsayers are toned down way harder, cuz bullying people like into quitting [marcan.st] isn't gonna help anyone and will only damage by making it look like the "" shitshow that , RMS et. al. [www.youtube.com] stan for [www.youtube.com]...

  • I literally know a shitload of trans, non-binary or just non- [white hetero/cis (binary) male] persons who refuse to even consider upstreaming or contributing to , or any projects at all due to the sheer observed externally.

And that is a problem even if we don't care about , and but merely the of said projects!

  • Cuz why would I (or anyone else) want to work with/on/for a company/project that'll get me (deservedly [!!!]) side-eyed at best if not unfriended by the few people I care about personally?

@kkarhan I believe we're done with this discussion, because you migrated from rational arguments into "DEI".

Wish you a nice day.
