  • @bagder@mastodon.social Well, it seems that your point is "Firefox consists of bad code", whereas I believe that the conclusion from the post should be "The library is bad code, which is why we are not using it in production. We'd be happy to look at their rust implementation, when it's possible"

    (footnote: "bad code" being an abbreviation of "100k multi-threaded C++")
