    Calling rust tainted... Encryption isn't tainted because pedos use it. Rust isnt tainted because AI bros use it.

    You misunderstand me. Rust is tAInted. "AI" is used in its development.

  • Yes; I was absolutely crestfallen when I caught wind of it being tAInted.

    I'm currently investigating alternatives. Redox is anti-AI, but written in Rust. Haiku isn't really suitable for most folks as a daily driver. ReactOS is basically a toy, and is tAInted anyways.

    Of the BSDs, FreeBSD and OpenBSD are both tAInted; Hyperbola is still using Linux-Libre; NetBSD itself is untAInted, but uses GCC (if I recall correctly), and one of its forks, MirBSD, is in the same boat.

    If I can build NetBSD using an alternative compiler toolchain, then that would be an excellent starting point for a new OS.

    Ah, a purist. Is any project pure enough for to use? Is a single commit enough to be "tainted"?
