    trackers are bad (especially google ones). odysee doesn’t get a pass just for being floss

    odysee/lbry’s privacy policy isn’t that much better but at least it’s clearer

    odysee has many problems, ranging from technical inabilities to questionable moderation but privacy does seem to be pretty much figured out (they do collect unnecessary information but it all looks like anonymous useful analytics)

    in conclusion, 2 trackers on the main page ain’t that bad








  • i can’t speak for the lemmy’s developers but rust is basically the perfect language for backend servers

    • it’s incredibly fast

    • it’s incredibly safe

    • there is clippy, a incredibly powerful tool to detect common mistakes

    • statically linked libraries (bad for normal applications but ideal for servers, it’s why go does it)

    • incredibly powerful pattern matching

    • very safe and easy-to-use generics

    • sanitized macros

    these are just a couple of things that came to mind. for most of rust’s life it was used as a language to create backend servers and dynamically link libraries so it ended up being very good for those things
