I learned a bit of rust and I think it's just about getting used to it. It's fairly subjective, and people say the same about C++. I also prefer the C syntax because I find it's simplicity extremely elegant and prefer it to have fewer features. And I like it for it's consistency, on linux the FHS is based up on C, and it just somewhat feels ugly to break that consistency.
Fair, I'm all in for de-bloating! The only problem with plugins is that it can become increasingly difficult to provide the same quality of testing and quality, because you can't possibly test all combinations of enabled plugins - even if most don't interfere with each other, it can easily break stuff

All these desperate attempts to protect copyright. I understand it, I want to publish things and not have it scraped by AI, but let's be realistic here. No government in the world wants to miss out on AI. The general public profits enormously from AI too. I doubt any of that is going to succeed.

it works just fine because people generally earn the same depending on education, experience and profession. There are tools online to check what range you can expect based on your parameters, and then there is some flexibility based on your person/skills. The salary is then negotiated during the application phase.
that sucks, this means no more hiding metadata. However, they aren't ditching switzerland (yet) - this only happens if the government applies the new surveillance rules which is not set in stone yet.
I use pgp and host mail myself. It's not as hard, and it's by far less problematic than a lot of people make it out to be. Don't trust hosters.
jeez
