> The philosophy behind [Rust] and the language itself is really good. I just don’t want to use it.

That's all that needed to be said. He only makes himself and the rest of the Zig "community" look as petty as some of the worst Rust people with the surrounding remarks. Why does anyone need to care what a few randoms think of a language? Either it gets used or it doesn't.

Petty? It's just a tool, people have opinions, rational or not.

The stupid thing is getting up in arms because someone said something you don't like.

As a guy who writes a famous Zig project, he probably gets a lot of young, eager Rust advocates trying to sell him on it. If it's his primary experience with the community, no wonder he's fed up.
