I guess time will tell, from what I read MDN will still be around and worked on, but there are no clear steps on how they will move forward yet.
While Mozilla is not a tech giant - they are still around, they don't seem to go anywhere, and I appreciate them for building Rust, among other things.
In the article that's why I'm also mentioning Microsoft - that's a huge company investing in Rust for their pretty critical systems.
And yeah, I spent some time digging into rustc internals for a student project in formal verification, it was hard but fulfilling experience. Also it has undervalued potential for building web-backends, check this out: dev.to/youroff/ultra-fast-backend-...
Next time I'm building graphql for a greenfield project, I'm def doing it with rust.
Quite funny and sad to read this in the scope of recent events: "I think Rust has a bright future given it is backed by Mozilla"
Yes, it is very sad that Mozilla had to lay off so many people lately, but I still think it's a good company that will succeed long term.
I like that their business model also focuses on developer tools and dev documentation.
Oof... I'm not so optimistic. They basically slaughtered whole MDN team, doesn't look that their business model has anything to do with dev docs. :(

There definitely seems to be some gems in this ecosystem - haven't got the occasion to look at those yet, but will soon when I get some free time:
