genemichaels VS libass

Python and JavaScript have similarly good formatters (as long as your idiot colleagues don't insist on using yapf instead of Black, despite yapf producing non-deterministic output!). In fact I would say Rust is probably behind Prettier in terms of auto formatting. The rustfmt output is less pretty (subjective I know), the devs have made several strange decisions and it seems to be semi-abandoned (maybe partly because the devs were ... shall we say not as friendly and welcoming as the Rust community likes to bleat on about).

There are a couple of alternative formatters:

There are alternatives to rustfmt: Prettier Rust and genemichaels

Gene Michaels, code formatter

I think we should all take inspiration from Gene Michaels and just start naming crates after random people.

TIL there's a library called 'libass'

Not Rust but libass :D

Dunno ... I'm kinda glad these guys didn't call their SSA/ASS implementation "open"

I see libass gets talked about on Reddit often enough.

libass is similar. For example, in the header:

Using softsub allows you to reduce server usage as you only needs to deploy one video and multiple subtitles, but implementing it is hard: you can use this portable renderer, but just because it compiles to multiple platforms it does mean it run well on those, it might crash in low-end devices (there is even a Crunchyroll episode that loads multiple fonts at the same time, place a lot of texts moving and crash my phone).
