I found the following conversation in the Rust (a programming language) subreddit (kind like a forum) at https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/oymdoj/upcoming_volt_a_rustbased_package_manager_thats/
A: I released a new tool called volt.
B: A little bit of an unfortunate naming here
volta: a js toolchain manager in rust
volt: a (unmaintained?) vim package manager
A: Rust is also a video game. We make do.
What does we make do mean here? Thanks.
It is an idiom that can be found in dictionaries https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/make-do
Generally it means "manage to survive without something we want"
So A: is saying that they would like a unique name for their projects. But they don't have a unique name. But the project can survive.
