The Rust Lang Ecosystem — Trans Megathread for the week of December 16, 2024, to December 22, 2024
A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
from rust-lang.org
Rust by itself is a great language, but what really makes it shine are its many great crates. The ecosystem around rust is one of the best there is, and its documentation is practically unrivalled. So lets look at some of those crates!
actix-web
Actix-web is an amazing web server framework for rust. It's modular, easy to use, intuitive and fast. It's also what lemmy is built on! So when you use this very site, you are using something build with actix!
Bevy
Bevy is a code first game engine for rust, based on the ECS paradigm. It's incredibly refreshing and different from most other engines. It is also unbelievably modular, in fact, just about every part of the engine cam be removed or added as you please! If you are every looking for something simple to play around, try bevy!
Tokio
The backbone of most asynchronous rust. It provides everything needed to build reliable, fast web applications!
Serde
Serde is the go-to library for serialization and deserialisation in rust. Its derive macros make it a breeze to use, and there are countless crates supporting various formats with Serde!
SQLx
SQLx is an amazingly simple sql handling crate. It is both feature rich and yet simple, and just a joy to use!
Reqwest
A neat little crate for sending http(s) requests! It's also used in Lemmy, and just about anywhere else where someone needs to do get some thing from an http(s) endpoint!
And this is far from all! Rust is a lovely language, with an even more amazing ecosystem!
Have an amazing week, everyone!

2 weeks until I start HRT, I feel like I'm moving really fast since my egg cracked like 2 months ago but when I really look at it I've known for years and years and just suppressed it and I wanna feel happy about myself. Excited and anxious but honestly I'd start today if I could
Don't feel bad. A lot of people "move fast" myself included. Don't fret on it.
and then there is me
All approaches are equally valid. Be it fast or slow. All our approaches to being trans are just as valid as the next.
It’s hard for me to fully accept myself as a woman…or like…to expect other to, so taking steps like that is hard.
A lot of people go through this. It's hard and not an easy thing to go through. I fought this fight after having started HRT, riding my proclivity for change and understanding that permanent changes took time. I still fight it from time to time 5 years later, but it has gotten much easier since I pass entirely and have lived as a woman for all these years. You take your life at the speed that is right for you. That's genuinely the only part that matters. If waiting until you're comfortable with acceptance is what you want to do, than that's perfectly fine. I hope you come to your conclusion and do what you need to do for yourself.
Shouts to "moving fast", love to see people moving fast after their eggs crack
seeing it more and more which rules!Starting hrt fast is cool and good, happy for you
hey look, it's another "post i could have written 7 months ago"
congrats, girl
I moved fast too, and was also very excited and anxious when starting. It's okay to go fast if that's what you want! As others have said, all approaches are valid, and I'm glad you'll soon be getting what you need
