  • No, it’s not bad.

    tbh, I’ve always like Apple’s launchd.

    Getting a “control center” for your init, with user groups, modularity, memory limits and queryable status/control is great. (Sometime people forget how painful init scripts can be…)

    The only problem I see is the tendency to cram everything into systemd.


  • I wasn’t suggesting implementing lemmy itself in JS/Typescript, but just adapt the lemmy-js-client (which is aimed at Node.js, if I’m not mistaken) to Deno.

    Deno is an interesting alternative to Node.js. It is written itself in Rust (on top of V8) and with a much saner toolchain and it’s aimed to server-side and CLI. The reason is exactly because the port of the Node.js client to Deno would be almost trivial (just changing some idiomatic ES6 imports) and it could open a whole new bunch of opportunities to new cool tools to interact with Lemmy.
