Personally I don’t care what it is written in. I care what the code does and how well it does it.

Rust is a cool and interesting language that helps solve some problems, but it doesn’t make it immune from all. But that doesn’t make it inherently better, or worse for the job. We have seen this trend for everything from C++ onwards (Java, Ruby, C#, Python, etc etc)

I feel knowing the language is important when sharing an open source project. From the title, I know this is something I could edit/review/use.

Help me understand: why does knowing the language matter? I can see why for contributing to it, though there are other ways to contribute than code. However to use it, why? Do you only use projects you can contribute to?

This isn't responsive to the article. Please avoid generic tangents.

I disagree, it was a response to the article's title. I could have said it better, but it wasn't just a random rant
