minus-squarecalcopiritus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoA program being written in rust itself doesn’t guarantee anything, but it tells you what you’ll probably find: Utf-8 support No shenanigans with installations, dynamic libraries and such. Just download and execute. Multi-platform support Low resource usage. semver. Compile with just 1 command if you want to. MIT/apache2 license. No memory leaks. If it crashes, at least it will probably log out something more helpful than “SEGFAULT”. Many of those are highly positive to the end consumer.
