I designed async/await and I absolutely did take this into account. I designed it to be as pleasant as possible under the constraints.

Can you admit that you failed in making it a pleasant experience to write async, especially for library authors? I don’t think it’s too late to admit failure and implement something like May https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may

  • no, I don't admit that, and I think you're an enormous asshole

    • Async await is polluting rust. What was once my favorite language is now a pain in the ass. And I am not the only person who feels this way. There’s no shame in pivoting
