I like skimming through these summaries, and especially since there are so many things happening on so different levels. It it everythign from tiny snake, to very advanced games. Good read.

What are the benefits of Smol compared to the dominant async framework Tokio?
Cannot both be true?
Darkreader didn't work well, but disable that and it looked ok in Firefox on Android.
Order? I write them as I need them... is my code chaos, yes!
Well, bringing over comments by a bot feels totally wrong. I'm not sure we want to have reddit comments here, since it sometimes differ quite a lot in culture. Bringing over posts only, could be done by bot if it is determined by a human, but then on the other hand I don't see the point in involving the bot. Then you just look at the list in the bot instead of in /r/rust , and it is not that hard to just manually post if you find something there that would fit here. I like what you are trying to achieve, but I'm not a big fan of bots... it is so easy to get them wrong and then they can cause a lot of harm.
Also, this community is coming along nicely. We are in the top tree communities on programming.dev if you look at the list of communities. We are the highest ranked programming language community, ahead of Python. So, I don't see any need for artificially inflating this community.

No, just look at the rust community on Lemmy that imports stuff like this. It is flooded with a lot of content, but that makes it impossible to follow and interact with. Also, if you know it is a bot that posted, you don't have any reason to interact with that post. Automatic imports tend to feel like spam, so please don't do this....
I'd rather see that people keep an eye open for suitable news, or ask genuine questions and write other interesting posts by hand. It may be a bit slow early on like it is now, but that is somewhat in proportion to the engagement so it all fits together.
When you compare "idea to deployment" speed, a dynamic language will always win. However, much of this win is due to a dynamic language will let you deploy with a lot of bugs. So, you will then have to spend lot of time fixing production issues. Rust will force you to fix most of these issues before you can deploy, hence it feels slower in this aspect. I previously worked for 10 years with a huge perl code base, and I trade the deployment speed for stability in production any time.
I guess this answeres my previous question about the lack of updates to the Intellij Rust plugin.
