I have to admit, I'm a bit of a cheater: I have my olde Lumia, which I mostly use as a remote for TV, mpv, and cmus connected to the audio system — stuff like that. I sometimes pick it up to browse Gemini pointlessly, doomscroll the RSS feeds and hang out on Fedi — but it's hardly as intrusive, the browser it has is very old, with a little CSS face lift Bloat looks neat, but most websites don't work, and there are no notifications which make you pick up the phone again.

Screen time? Which apps I use the most? 🤔
My smartphone usage patterns are something like this 🤪

@romin
I WAS surprised TBH — it's Void so I was expecting to find it at least here 😨

@prahou @ozzelot
I'm unemployed and although I have a smartphone, it sometimes manages to collect several layers of dust over the course of weeks 😆

@romin
If you refuse to use nano, next time they are making you edit config files in AbiWord 🤪

If cypherpunks exist, does cypherbullying?
Like… Refusing to accept invites to unencrypted Matrix chatrooms? Requesting key exchange algorithms that sshd does not support? 🤔

Indeed, the compiler doesn't warn you about shit… But in case with Rust you're in some cases doing things in a very inefficient way just to make the compiler SHUT THE FUCK UP — because you feel that re-writing it in an idiomatic way for Rust might make your head explode 🤯
All in all, nothing is perfect, the article is absolutely right about that.

@fiore @max @snacks
You have to learn how to write *idiomatic* Go code (at least read The Go Programming Language), then a lot of mistakes are easy to avoid — and a lot of things start making sense, those that don't — never do 😂

@fiore @max @snacks
I agree! The main point: it's hard to move away from — that is indeed so and it's very important when you're using it commercially, as for other disadvantages — they have their counterparts in other languages, the article even gives a few examples of those.
One other thing that strikes me: indeed, it has very opinionated defaults and your code is to be error-prone if you're writing it just by looking at others' code, which is important for junior devs…

@fiore @max @snacks
Oh, come on, let's be civil here!
(Just trick your mind into thinking it's Plan 9 Glenda — ain't easy considering the lack of ears, but life is SO-O MUCH easier that way 🤭)

@snacks @fiore @max
Also I've seen those who are normally JS devs write Go code and like it… Just saying! 😜

I resist the pressure
To be who you want me to be
I resist the pressure
I resist so I am free 🤘
