Thanks for the clarifications.
I still seem to be able to comment on posts on [email protected] ... only other lemmy.world users will see those comments?

Lemmy itself is open source... it's written in Rust, if you have interest in learning that... but seems to have a TypeScript frontend...
There are just so many open source projects that's hard to choose one :) the best thing is to try to help on something you actually use. If you just want a random suggestion , try https://github.com/trending Lots of Python in there! There are filters, including for language... e.g. for Go projects : https://github.com/trending/go?since=daily
Find something you want to actually use, use it, then try to improve whatever bothers you...
You're going to suggest switching web servers without any reason at all? Do you think that's a reasonable thing to do?
What would Caddy have that Nginx does not, and why would Lemmy need whatever that is? What problem do you believe switching would solve, and does the cost of making the effort required to do it make that a worthwhile endeavour?
After the fiasco of the submarine program Australia had with France, Sweden should be really careful with the terms of the contract :)
PS Would like to write på svenska but still learning, hope it's ok.
This site is really responsive and looks nice, has lots of good features etc... well done to the devs who created it... I know some Rust and could probably help out, I will have a look at the tickets and see if I can find time to explore the source code... thanks for the raising this up, I am sure others like me will find this and want to join the battle... being open source and community owned, I think it deserves contributions from users who are able to (and donations for those who still want to help but can't contribute code).
EDIT: wow the code is very easy to follow! Highly recommend having a look if you know some Rust or want to practice Rust :)
In which planet does a Lua developer get more money than a Java/Javascript/Kotlin developer?? And I always find it amazing how Dart is consistently low-paid, despite mobile developers normally having a pretty decent salary and Dart being almost solely used for mobile dev... this must be like a few big Dart/Flutter users that pay very little (perhaps in some developing country) while Zig, the best paid language, is very likely only used in a couple of high paying companies (Uber seems to use it for a few small things, and I guess someone like Google/Facebook may be using it as well - they use every language under the Sun).

What do people expect? MSFT doing it out of altruism??
It's hard if you have unprotected, shared mutable state. If you use a language that uses immutable data structures (Haskell, Clojure, Erlang) it's easy! If you use a language that won't let you share mutable data without the required protection (Rust) it's also easy! Everything else and you can be sure that even if it looks like it works, it most likely doesn't.
Wow, no one mentioning IntelliJ?? I use the free edition with Rust and it works great... the only thing missing is a debugger, which requires the CLion distribution which is not free... but so far that hasn't been a big problem for me.
When I was still at university, I started working on a place where Spring was used... they gave me a book called "Spring in Action" to read. I loved reading it and everything made much more sense after that... I highly recommend trying to get a deep understanding of something so central to an application like Spring before you start doing anything more advanced with it. You wouldn't want to drive a F1 car without first learning how to do it properly, it may be fun at first but you're likely to crash and burn.
Hi, I am new here :) just wondering: where's the programming content? All I see is posts about Reddit and Lemmy.
