Maestro, a Linux compatible kernel written in Rust. - Lemmy.World

Enter Maestro, a unix-like monolithic kernel that aims to be compatible with Linux in order to ensure wide compatibility. Interestingly, it is written in Rust. It includes Solfége, a boot system and daemon manager, maestro-utils, which is a collection of system utility commands, and blimp, a package manager. According to Luc, it’s creator, the following third-party software has been tested and is working on the OS: musl (C standard library), bash, Some GNU coreutils commands such as ls, cat, mkdir, rm, rmdir, uname, whoami, etc… neofetch (a patched version, since the original neofetch does not know about the OS). If you want to test it out, fire up a VM with at least 1 GB of ram.

Ok, I’m out of the loop and I’ve seen this often enough that I have to ask; why do people always bring up “written in rust”? No one points out that a given project is written in C++/C#/python/ruby etc, yet we keep seeing it for rust.
Programmers are hyped about Rust. It’s a programming language that has a legitimate chance to replace C and C++ for performance critical applications. So any new project in Rust increases the possibility of a future where C and C++ are programming languages of the past.
Imo rust won’t replace cpp without true Oop so I might just make my own objective rust and piss off Oop haters
The parent post was edited, wasn’t it? I replied something to it, but the mentions of OOP have been removed. Am I goig crazy? 🤪
And I’m confused why I got two comments going into the OOP tangent, when I made no mention about it at all.
Apologies!
No worries! I love conversations bashing on 00s-style OOP principles.
