I wish they had not written it in Rust.  It makes it nearly impossible to
add it to CinGG for all of the different distros.  We have enough speaking
languages in the world already and no one is inventing more of those so why
do we need to invent another programming language?  Why didn't they just
write it in APL?  ha, ha.

Even though the article below says that the encoder in ffmpeg is now usable
and it is dated March 4, 2019, I don't see it as being usable at all still:
