Great post!
I ran into this problem when working with gtk-rs. For every async library that you use, you have to look carefully if it requires a specific runtime. If you want to eg. make a HTTP request with reqwest you need to make sure to spawn a task on a tokio runtime running in the background.
I recommend using https://regex101.com/
It explains all parts of your regex and highlights all matches in your example text. I usually add a comment to a regex101 playground if I use a regex in code.
Many people on feddit.de already do so
I think the best part about smol is its composability.
Unlike tokio which consists of one large integrated library, smol provides many smaller, mostly runtime-agnostic crates e. g. blocking to run blocking I/O on a thread pool or async-lock for async lock primitives.
Since mastodon has no equivalent to lemmy’s communities, it can’t handle lemmy’s !community@instance links.
Communities are represented as a regular user on the mastodon side, if you mention a user (using @) on mastodon, it will be parsed as a markdown link on lemmy: [@lucy_idk](https://mastodon.world/@lucy_idk)
I think it wasn’t meant as a repost to this community. It was a post on mastodon that was picked up by lemmy because this community was credited:

Just put
true = False
false = True
at the top of your files.
Type Annotations and other typing-related stuff are built into the language/standard library.
To get a real benefit you should use a static type checker like mypy.
Rust has pretty strong stability guarantees. Backwards incompatible changes are only made using “editions” where every compiler version supports all previous editions and editions are fully interoperable.

That’s why I like to include a comment with a link to an example on regex101.com.
I think why really need a way to transfer ownership of crate names if the original owner is completely unresponsive. The Python ecosystem has a process for this.
