I still don't think something so important should be beholden to the whims of one company (Linux Foundation) or their country's laws (USA).

Not everyone wants to live in the terminal. I would argue most people don't.

you might need a time machine for that

I think if Rust people want C and C++ devs to switch over, there needs to be a lot more documentation that's easy to follow on how exactly to do that. For example with Swift there's an amazing tutorial called Swift for C++ Practitioners that step-by-step goes over all the equivalent functionality and how to translate existing concepts over from one language to the other. I think Swift at least has the edge there with familiarity because the syntax physically looks closer to C-like languages, so when that's not the case, even more hand-holding is going to be necessary IMO.

I would use Ada or Spark in a heartbeat if there was an easy-to-use, mature cross-platform GUI library for it.

I think eventually if a federated system (or particular server) gets too popular they will just defederate from everyone else and perpetuate the same problem all over again

such a qol upgrade

I don't think you're wrong, but I do think that if everyone thought that, they would be doing it already.

I have routinely tried to get friends and family to use ad-blockers and they simply don't care enough to even attempt to download one.
