For five years running, Rust has taken the top spot as the most loved programming language. TypeScript is second surpassing Python compared to last year. We also see big gains in Go, moving up to 5th from 10th last year.

            Forking a big project is really really hard. That’s main criticism of Bitcoin btw that the protocol is almost impossible to fork and it’s a very sensitive involved medium compared to something like typescript. For example if Microsoft would introduce unwanted minor feature even with community outrage forks would be very unlikely. Now add up many minor sneaky changes and suddenly you’re at the wheel!
