    TIL rust has some sort of ratings for libraries/dependency code.

    A random guy going through the trouble of putting together a site to subjectively rate other people’s work is hardly something that’s language-specific.

    I’d wager that adding a single tag/field to represent the programming language is all it takes to make the system universal.

    Also, that’s not even language-specific. It’s package-centric.

    I get it, joining bandwagons is fun. That’s not a substitute for thinking things through, though.

    By the way, npm even supports package auditing, warnings, and autopromoting packages and its dependencies. You don’t hear people constantly parroting switching projects to Node.js over this, though.
