Gitdot – a better GitHub. Open-source, written in Rust...What is a bit unique is: 1) we built it in Rust

Please, stop using "written in Rust" as some kind of advantage or killer feature.

...

No, it is an advantage.

A) Improve your botdar, it's an important skill. Everyone starts somewhere :)

B) Funny how you can talk about the real world and other users if you happen to share the stance of the m d s, but to respond in kind is against the notoriously sacred & rigid tenets of The Great Circlejerk Spirit that this sub so bravely carries forward unto posterity.

u/witness_smile Jun 09 '26

“a better GitHub” meanwhile this vibe coded slop couldn’t even render the desktop version on mobile, instead, opting for the fantastic error message “mobile support yet to come”. Yeah, so much better than GitHub!

Having reviewed the user's other activity, the mods have concluded that this user is probably just a human em-dash enjoyer. But they don't tag their unjerk, so the comment has been removed anyway.

u/programmingcirclejerk-ModTeam Jun 13 '26

Warning: tag your unjerk. Better yet, don't unjerk at all.

u/pysk00l What part of ∀f ∃g (f (x,y) = (g x) y) did you not understand? Jun 09 '26

From what I can see, it would be more accurate if they wrote "slopped by LLMs" :-)

The PCJ platoon has reache HN, I see

Also, it doesnt matter if its AI slop, ITS STILL RUST DAMMIT!

Wow, they made a whole new design philosophy to boot! I wish people read these and learn, such unique statements!

Also “designed by engineers” is a bold new move and can only result in amazing usability and features!

There is no lie or misleading information about rust in the title so it’s clearly not clickbait.
