kbin is written in PHP and Lemmy is written in rust. The decision makes itself
I’ve seen others say that, but I know almost nothing about coding languages so I didnt want to comment on it lol
php is one of the most widely deployed scripting languages for websites. It used to suck a lot and still kinda does. You can write good code in it but anyone who isn’t monolingual in php would be insane to do it.
Rust is a new, largely still developing language that has some let’s say unconventional priorities. It’s used less than php by a significant margin but people who like it like it a lot and want you to know that. It generally runs faster than php because it wasn’t made to commit the horrible sin of mixing html with imperative code.
the horrible sin of mixing html with imperative code.
I definitely know what this means :trump-anguish:
…it wasn’t made to commit the horrible sin of mixing html with imperative code.
