I made a blog post discussing my biggest issues with Lemmy and why I am kind of done with it as a software.

@nutomic@lemmy.ml3•

I was a Java developer before starting to contribute to Lemmy. Didnt know anything about Rust, just wrote code and resolved compiler errors until things worked. Rust is definitely not as hard to learn as some people think.

Anyone who has worked in SE knows how massive of a red flag this is. Nutomic aint wrong on principle. But aint he massively wrong at the same time.

Kotlin is a replacement for Java. But boy oh boy are they different languages allowing different things in the same VM.
