@skyblitz@kanoa.de I’m not getting that impression looking at the activity in the repo. Rust code in the repo is being maintained, there are commits today that touch rust code, so it’s not exactly completely abandoned even in-tree.
I understand people wanting more rust but also it's not how historically rust subsystems were coming to firefox. Most were developed outside of Firefox initially and then were integrated. Both WebRender and Stylo were cooking for quite a while in Servo before coming to Firefox. And there's a plenty of activity in Servo right now. I'm not saying that all of it’s coming to Firefox but who knows?

@pointlessone@status.pointless.one @Hikari@ohai.social to be honest it's not like i want more rust specifically, i just lost faith in mozilla, as they stopped to try to plug the techical debt, and chase the AI dragon like any other crappy US tech. Mozilla would had much more user if they rejected AI and worked to plug the security gap between them and chromium. But mozilla is disconnected from what the user want since the years they bough pocket against the community's will.
