“every rust project has a billion dependencies”

oh no they made code composable oh nooooooo should we call someone??

rust has a lot of problems, but let me tell you: “micro libraries” isn’t one

splitting packages per concern is good for build performance, it’s good for review, it’s good for API evolution.

the problems are technical (compiler perf), financial (funding OSS), human etc.

@fasterthanlime it's only good for build performance because rustc can't parallelize compiling a single crate very much, which I would say is a problem in and of itself, but otherwise yeah.
