Comment on Zig quits GitHub, says Microsoft's AI obsession has ruined the service

I’ve been enjoying zig.
It feels like when I go to write C, but without a bunch of code churn/copy paste on getting just the right memory management interface.
It’s not perfect, and the API churn makes it really annoying to find decent documentation. But it’s fun.

You might like Odin.

I think the next language I’ll learn will be rust, but Odin has been recommended to me a couple times now.
I do want to try that one out

Same boat, but be warned that Zig and Odin are C-like, while Rust is C++ like. The different workflow needs some getting used to.

Thanks.
I always avoided c++ for its complexity and bad error messages.
If rust is better at that then I’ll give it an honest shot.
