Re:Ask HN: Know some Good C programming communities?

I evaluated a lot of languages before settling down on C. I have 2 main reasons why I chose C. One is that I wanted to pay homage to many great programmers who wrote industry-pushing software in C. The other reason was that I wanted to start from 'scratch' and use as few pre-made libraries as possible. I think there is a lot of fun in starting a project like this from 0 and figuring out everything on the go :D

Rust is rather low level, yet it offers memory safety.

Some of those great programmers might probably have chosen other languages if they existed back then.
Anyway, I think what you're doing is pretty cool and I wish you all the success in whatever language you choose to do this in.
