Because they want to sponsor Crystal?
As long as funding is going towards improving the language and ecosystem, I really don't see the issue here.

Wasn't the company based on lies and fraudulent activities? I remember hearing about it a few months ago. It doesn't look good for a language to be associated with such a company.
Complete nonsense.
Should I stop using Rust because Facebook / Meta is using it for cryptocurrencies and they want to be a part of growing the Rust ecosystem?
This is interesting considering Rust is the most loved language on HN and Facebook is the most hated company on HN.
For any other language or framework I would not be surprised ( I could almost bet ) the common view on HN would be to stop using it, example MySQL, Java etc.
But given this is Rust.
I never told you to stop using anything. Also, which part of my comment is complete nonsense?
"It doesn't look good for a language to be associated with such a company."
This is complete nonsense.
So we should stop using React?
Yes. Unless you’re Facebook size, Svelte has a much better DX, and compiles to significantly more performant, optimized bundles.
