what if, an alternative to both mastodon _and_ pleroma, which is much less memory-heavy and is a single executable file you drop on your server

@er1n after I saw a friend writting a 900 lines long code in rust for a script that would be at most 50 lines of python I was very less hyper by this technology for this kind of applications >_>
@wxcafe @CobaltVelvet @bram @er1n i wanna try it out real bad but i don't have any practical use cases for it right now
@Gargron @wxcafe @er1n same, it looks really cool but meh, what should I do with it?
@CobaltVelvet I'm really interested in examples then because, from here, except if you do this a().b().c().... to compress things on one line python (and ruby) seems way more expressive than rust :o
also my experience of having 5% of my productivity level in haskell compare to python made me very skeptical of those langage for fast and short dev which is 90% of my use cases
@bram @Gargron @wxcafe @er1n @CobaltVelvet
Crystal ftw

@bram @Gargron @wxcafe @er1n @CobaltVelvet > full website without a line of pony code
I JUST WANT TO SEE
plz
@Gargron @bram @wxcafe @er1n @CobaltVelvet *smell llvm*
@Technowix @Gargron @bram @wxcafe @er1n @CobaltVelvet ... smellvm 🤔
@Technowix @Gargron @wxcafe @er1n @CobaltVelvet https://patterns.ponylang.org/ (but yeah, their website sucks)
@gargron @bram @er1n maybe it was just bad code or a missing library
i mean my rust is both cleaner faster and sometimes shorter than my python and i've been doing python every day for years
