Seems like an interesting effort. A developer is building an alternative Java-based backend to Lemmy's Rust-based one, with the goal of building in a handful of different features. The dev is looking at using this compatibility to migrate their instance over to the new platform, while allowing the community to use their apps of choice.

Hello world in Java = 500 lines of code.

Hello world in Rust = 3 lines of code.

Java is over-engineered corporate bullshit used by banks and Android development. Nobody programs Java for the fun of it.

Java devs are the reason humanity will never have FTL drives.

Hello World is < 10 lines in Java. Just say you don’t know the language and go away.

Java runs the majority of corporate software out there, and it is very good at what it’s built for.

I’ll take Java over Python/Rust any day of the week
