Rust is downloading 1546 dependencies
Crates aren't exactly runtime dependencies, so i think that's fine as long as the 1500+ dependencies actually help prevent reinventing the wheel 1500+ times
I'll happily download 63928 depends so long as it continues to work. And it does, unlike python projects that also download 2352 depends but in the process brick every other python program on your system
If you're not using a venv for python development, that's kind of on you
Venv is the way
Good for you. Not all of us have terabytes of free space on our computers.
