Hello, I am starting to learn and play around with tokio and multithreaded code. I am now playing around with websockets, I don't quite understand the difference between broadcast and mpsc, and when would you use either, I mean, I am assuming broadcast is intended for multiple clients, but multiple clients were able to connect to my mscp channel, and receive a bit of data (but it was weird and partial). So I don't quite get it.

The problem might be the arc mutex. mpsc are already clone, send and sync. When you clone an arc mutex T, you are cloning the arc. But mpsc probably needs to be cloned itself to work properly.
