I find it ironic that young generations only used to GNU/Linux glibc dynamic linking, find static linking something out of the ordinary.

Like you say, it was how everyone deployed software.

I count myself as the young generation (21), static linking is out of the ordinary since it is rarely done for software I run (outside my Rust and Go development).

But I still think it's how software should be deployed, it should be the norm.

I blame developing in Go.
