>> the melodramatic cliquey "I'm leaving the project" bluster as of late...

That may be good. It a narcissistic trait and they are leaving the project.

Honestly, the language and the community are mostly great. There's a few outliers that aggressively want to draw attention to themselves (which is inherently narcissistic).

That's not something that's unique to Rust in particular, every community has those. Rust's is still relatively small given it's only had a big uptick of users Recently. It'll settle eventually; it always does.

Also, I don't tend to interact or pay much attention to the bad apples in the community. So, I guess I'm just not that bothered by them. Ignoring them is the worst thing you can do to narcissists and idiots; it makes them go away to leech elsewhere.

Whether it's Rust or Crab I am not particularly bothered; the technical side of the language are a boon in themselves.
