My impression is that it is just someone who created a community for each language they could think of.

Actually it's the /r/experienceddevs subreddit mods who created that instance. I had never heard of the subreddit before though but they had a bit above 100k subscribers

Actually you don't need multiple accounts, you only need one in a specific instance and can interact with other instances (My account is registered at programming.dev).

The UX is extremely wonky and I had to look it up, but you can go to the search in the top right of your instance's main page (not the "communities" subpage) and search for communities and filter by "Communities" in the top left

The sooner a community can be decided on, the better. /r/rust should then link to that instance in their privatization message so users who're out of the loop are not completely lost.

The first bullet point in "Project & Toolings Updates" section only has "Changelog #184" without referencing that it's about rust-analyzer. This should be changed to be more clear

There are currently 3 Rust communities across 3 instances: programming.dev, lemmyrs.org and this one (lemmy.ml). I know it's still very early for the migration from /r/rust, but it would split the community if there are so many options and nobody knows which is the "right" one. Currently this community has the most subscribers, but it would make sense if the Rust community finds its new home in one of the other instances.

  • lemmyrs.org seems like the logical solution if instance-wide rules are paramount and "non-negotiable"
  • personally I would love a programming-centric instance and programming.dev seems like a good way. Rust is not the only language I'm actively using (unfortunately :)). Maybe there can be community-specific rules that "enforce" the Rust CoC and the Rust community can find a home there?

Either way, the current situation has the most negative impact.

Thoughts?
