Graphite – open-source raster and vector 2D graphics editor written in Rust

This is the unfortunate reality of a lot of Rust projects. There are of course some who don't fetischise the language and there are of course community members on both sides but from the outside it makes Rust look so, so unappealing and almost like a cult.

And that's without the "rewrite it in Rust" spam.

Currently the worse cult part is the subculture to push unsafe code blocks beyond the purpose of memory corruption.

There is a Rust subculture that anything that might be unsafe from usage, regardless how, should be tagged as unsafe.
