[–] INeedMana@piefed.zip 1 point 1 year ago* (2 children) Thanks :) async_println is a part of fast_log? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fartsparkles@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (1 child) Both faster_log and async_println were purely malicious packages (not taken over and turned malicious). I know faster_log is typosquatting / luring fast_log users but I’m not sure about about async_println (which was a clone of the malicious faster_log). async_std::print is a thing so I guess trying to lure users who search crates before docs :shrug: permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] nebeker@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago I mean, if you want your prints to be asynchronous you’re looking for trouble to begin with. The previous statement is a joke. permalink fedilink source parent
