@miaomiao1992 Crab is just a fork of the Rust language. It's more of a harmless protestware, just to put pressure on the Rust foundation/core team to drop some of their bad governance practices.

I ran a poll on the /r/rust subreddit titled Do you think the Rust Foundation is damaging the future of the Rust language? Out of a total of 47 votes, 25 people said Yes.

I reached out to the moderation team to know why the post was removed. Well, they said it was auto-removed by a moderation bot. Anyway, not even this talk made them think that they should probably get the post back.

Though, I should note, as mentioned and directly confirmed by specific individuals, not all the bad practices is coming from the Rust Foundation. The Rust core team is just going shoulder to shoulder with them.
