Says a competitor from the Zig software foundation, as if you wouldn't have any ulterior motives, to include a clearly divergent reality.
If anything, I suppose the urge was too great, to not expose yourself.

I'm not in the ZSF, although I do throw $50 a month to them, even though I don't use Zig. I use Rust a lot personally. I just like what Zig is doing. They haven't achieved all of their goals yet---just like V hasn't---but I look forward to when they do. And they've already produced some awesome stuff. While there are many differences between Zig and V, one of the most important ones is that Zig doesn't falsely advertise. If they did, I wouldn't contribute a single cent to them.
I totally agree with kristoff here and also munificent[1]. Y'all have a massive victim complex on grand display in this thread and exhibit the classical signs of projecting your own issues on to everyone else.

The V community does not create these continuous attack threads or blogs (which is very obvious when reading them), nor told competitors or detractors to come join in on these underhanded attacks.
The "projection", is coming from yourself. That you are a supporter of Zig and Rust, is your own business, that's not the focus of this thread or what my comments are about. But clearly you couldn't help yourself to come do some bashing of a rival language, then gaslight about why there might be a reaction to it.
The OP isn't an attack. That's the victim complex I'm talking about. It's a standard experience report.
