fwiw i dont like fo run javascript on my servers but thats not because its inherently slow (it isnt, lol) or insecure (???) but because it feels kinda 2018-corpo-techbro-silicon valley vibes to me so its just . not my taste . but like if to you it feels different its whatever i guess , like . node is fast enough .

@fiore In general I’ve never really understood passionate “hate” of a programming language, it feels very forced. Disliking using it or disagreeing with design decisions sure. But going out of your way to trash it feels very……childish.

@nagirin imean to be fair what we are talking ab out here is Not Liking JS For A Specific Usecase (backend).
like commonly opinions like these arent as bad imo, like “using a rust framework for your frontend is bound to give you some headaches” is a reasonable take , but in this case specifically the people that complain about it dont realize that like . Everyone Is Doing This. everyone is running a node backend and theres kinda nothing you can do about that ,

brettm@swarm.coiloptic.orgI run Node despite hating Javascript (perhaps irrationally) for making browsers such bloatware. Node is for running Sigmawall crawler protection. But Node cannot connect to the internet, the firewall blocks it, it sits behind Nginx, so I don't have to think too much about NPM attacks or whatever.

@SRAZKVT languages have gone from being a standardized baseline (yknow, a Language) to a Piece Of Software and thats just upsetting

@nachtrabe @fiore That just holds with stuff in general outside programming……I go to uni I’ve had my fair share of stuff I don’t like forced upon me, that doesn’t mean need to be immature enough to stoop down to hating it just because I dislike it.
