To offer a different perspective, green threads are far easier to use for programmers (which is a valuable quality; I'm not dismissing that), but async/await is the better abstraction if you know how to use it. I justify this more in [0]. Async/await is great, but pragmatically it should not be pushed as the sole "asynchronous programming" abstraction. It requires more QoL infrastructure to be even somewhat usable as general-purpose, although I think it'll be worthwhile to continue bridging the gap. | ||
