Tor Ditches C for Rust and Your Privacy Benefits

i am not the author of the blog post, i just think it’s always good news when projects that actually matter start adopting rust, especially for us in the so‑called rust cult.

of course, the usual discussions may or may not pop up again, as they always do.

i have a lot of respect for c developers; most of the critical tools in my own development workflow are written in c, and that’s not going to change anytime soon.

so instead of flaming each other, let’s just focus on writing good software, in whatever language we use.

i really enjoy the rust community, but even more than that i enjoy clippy, and every rust dev probably knows the feeling that the longer you write rust, the more you start to rely on its error messages and suggestions.
