      https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

      Why is it the canon way to install rust by piping curl output to sh???

      Trusting official installation instructions from the software developer might be a step or two down from trusting your distro’s package maintainers, but it’s still several steps up from trusting random advice from a forum or chatroom.

      And with the possible exception of Ken Thompson or Ben Eater, we’ve all got to trust somebody.

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/playlist?list=PLowKtXNTBypGqImE405J2565dvjafglHU

        Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

        I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
