Lots of angry comments in the post announcing Sublinks in this community, mostly criticizing Java choice
To get contributors to the backend?
It can be memes, but I also plan to post other content, like pictures of certain countries, good news, innovation, etc.
Thank you for your perspective
Seems like it! I’m going to leave the poll open for 24 hours total, but seems like the choice is made
En fait tu es tout seul ici avec moi et mes alts
Thank you, always good to have active posters interested in a new community!
2024, Java is still the 2nd language on GitHub with 11,7% of the total code hosted, while Rust is number 13 with 1,8%
That’s an old story, and if I remember correctly the title was misleading, it was more of a decision of the instance admins to not renew it rather than the Taliban having anything to do with it
The poll is for the name!
And even more, the Lemmy codebase doesn’t really have any important developers besides the two main devs: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/graphs/contributors.
Even looking at the contributions to something like Mbin, which has been around for much shorter, you already see 6 people with more than 50 commits, while Lemmy has one
Hm, Java is hated by devs, but still 2nd language on GitHub with 11,7% of the total code hosted, while Rust is number 13 with 1,8%?
I have higher hopes. Java is three times more developers than Rust (https://www.statista.com/statistics/793628/worldwide-developer-survey-most-used-languages/), and you can see in this thread a number of people saying they could contribute as they know Java and not Rust.
Let’s hope for the best.
Any example of badly moderated communities? Asking because I didn’t notice anything special.
