Mostly agree with the premise of this post, but you don’t necessarily need to use a language that causes segfaults if you look at it wrong (It Is Undefined Behavior™) to “go back to your roots” (though from what I’ve seen you’ve been enjoying C a lot OP, so that’s good too), any language works when you don’t have The Business breathing down your neck.
Write a little VM in Rust, or C#. Hell, try doing a SPA in pure JS without npm (or any other package manager) or any frameworks or even libraries, only native custom components, it’s surprisingly fun.
Gotta be honest, I got fed up and just… shut down my server when conduwuit died. I might come back to matrix if the ecosystem becomes less of a joke, but I’m really not holding my breath about it. Community drama is the worst.
