我个人的看法: * Rust的类型安全、内存安全等特性,似乎并不是sqlite这个项目目前最大的痛点; * sqlite自身庞大的测试集合,并不开源(原文中有一句话“SQLite’s test suite is proprietary”),没有这些测试用例的支持,很难说这个项目的质量如何; * sqlite项目也有自身的一些问题,这个世界实例最多的数据库项目,在我看来“开源但并不开放”,只接受几位核心开发团队的代码贡献,不像一般的开源项目那样可以接受来自社区的pr,所以turso自己才fork了一个libsql出来,也许正是因为sqlite非社区维护,才让人对它有所担心。

What is Telegram Possible Future Strategies?
Cryptoassets enthusiasts use this application for their trade activities, and they may make donations for this cause.If somehow Telegram do run out of money to sustain themselves they will probably introduce some features that will not hinder the rudimentary principle of Telegram but provide users with enhanced and enriched experience. This could be similar to features where characters can be customized in a game which directly do not affect the in-game strategies but add to the experience.
