I have to say I'm not terribly big fan of videos with a title that is opposite of the message. It feels cheap. "Don't do X unless you want [long list of benefits of doing X]". Why do we need this?

A few years ago many countries were marketing themselves with "Don't go to [country name]", and it was cringe already then.

Yes. It's somewhere between trolling and clickbait with some rule skirting and should really be head on banned.

I get what you mean but I don’t really think that applies here. He’s arguing that Rust is worse than Go because Gopher is better than Ferris, it really isn’t that serious.
