  1. ​@RustIsWinning It's not unsafe if it has been proven safe. Perhaps you don't realise that all languages boil down to assembly code at the bottom, and assembly is unsafe. Rust might be considered safe. Why? Because the implementation has features that enforce "safety" rules. The same enforcement can be built into a C application. The difference is in where and how those rules are enforced, but it can be done.

  2. C is not chaos or anarchy. C is a language that might permit chaos, but on its own, it does nothing. Some developers are creating chaos. I don't accept that as a good reason to dump a language.

  3. Windows users are, by and large, just people who want to get their jobs done. They typically don't spend all day debating the kernel or the language used or the pros and cons of each Windows update or major build release. The Linux world is toxic and dysfunctional.

  4. They're both dreadful.

  5. Linux already is a terrible experience. At least it was for me.
