it's not written in Rust, it is written in Typescript

the backend is written in Rust

if you use Discord, you don't care about the backend, it doesn't run on your machine

This is something i notice about rust users, they promote "written in Rust" more than the products

Very bad marketing

discuss

I'd wager that in general the crowd frequenting this site are much more interested in what the back-end / protocol is written in than what the web app is.

I guess I'm not a part of this "general" then.

Solutions should solve a problem. Tech demos should demonstrate tech.

Funny that they are not encrypted and also based in the EU, so any kind of "revolt" against the status quo couldn't ever happen using their platform. https://revolt.chat/aup

If you use Discord you probably don't care about self hosting, which a Revolt user might.

Right, but for a self hosted project this might of interest.
