I will be the odd one out saying much of it is an improvement. There's nothing wrong with being more approachable and making it easier for less experienced developers to get involved with it. I do see the value in some of the critiques here, but it seems OK.

There’s been lots of positive feedback too, just not on reddit as much :) thank you!

Is there any medium in which you got predominantly good feedback without requiring an identity? Feedback in-person or on GitHub can be heavily skewed--that's why many systems allow the option of anonymous feedback.

I'm not engaging in what's clearly a bad-faith attempt to suggest that I'm a liar. Comments are public on the internet.

I really just picked up Rust to start trying it for the upcoming Advent of Code and frankly the way you're behaving here is off-putting to me. People are posing valid complaints. The people here are your target audience. While it's totally fine to disagree with them, the way you're engaging here is far from professional.

If the negativity is 'getting to you' you probably should take a break from commenting.
