Processor architectures maybe. They put Rust into Debian and it’s so bad that now e.g. amd64 is ruined forever for any OS and won’t see any new processors in the future. We’ll have to move to a different architecture. I didn’t watch the video since I treasure my brain cells too much but that’s what I choose to read into it.
(A more reasonable reading is that Debian now ships a kernel that includes Rust code and coincidentally has also dropped builds for several obscure architectures but I do not feel obliged to assume reason with a title and thumbnail like that.)
Badly chosen title and thumbnail aside. It’s actually the 2nd reason. With Rust now part of the kernel, the kernel won’t build for a number of architectures. Whether the architectures are obscure or not is debatable. I sure wouldn’t want to debate one who still uses them though. Either way, the fact that the kernel won’t be compiled for these architectures is true.

So it’s not “Rust destroys Debian”, it’s “Rust destroys Linux”?
