I’m talking about posting on their website a link to alternative social media accounts.

I’d make a blind bet on that over Matrix for suitability.

In that case we could all just use email.

That doesn’t explain why yhey don’t start a transition by posting to both the new platform and the old. And not including links to their new account on their websites.

Matrix and XMPP don’t even pretend to be Discord replacements.

Unfortunately the accounts listed under Social network accounts of Debian teams and Social network accounts of Debian contributors are almost exclusively Twitter accounts.

He made up hypothetical scenarios that nobody asked about, and then denigrated Rust by attacking the scenarios he came up with.

This seems to be the textbook description of a strawman argument.

It’s also a microkernel and intentional not POSIX compliant (but it’s close to compliant). I like the project, but it’s very experimental on purpose, so we should set our expectations accordingly. I’d love to see it become a success, but it may not be or it may only be successful in a smaller niche than the current Linux ecosystem.

That said, it seems very open to new contributors. I hope more people can help it along.

It’s strange to me people refer to the awk command rather than the AWK language.

I guess it depends on what you’re planning doing with NixOS or Aux. I wouldn’t use it for anything new and critical. I’d figure out a mitigation strategy if I were relying on it for something critical.

But for experimental purposes, neither option seems like a bad call.
