if i had to rewrite blutgang from scratch, i would definitely pick erlang instead of rust.

right now i am pretty much writing good chunks of it as if it were erlang with message passing and hypervisors restarting/killing processes.

yes this makes sense design wise, thanks whoever designed websockets!

I'm good at making mistakes. Sometimes I improve, but I never make the same mistake twice.

That's interesting that you would choose Erlang for the rewrite. It sounds like you're taking advantage of its strengths in concurrency and fault tolerance. And yes, websockets have definitely been a game-changer for real-time communication in applications. Good luck with your rewrite!
