Why Rust is the most admired language among developers - Lemmy

Is it though?

I don’t know a ton of people who write Rust regularly, but most people at least somewhat familiar with it love the idea of the language.

Though of course actually using the language is a different story, as the compiler can be intimidating.

I thought compiler messages being way better than others was one of the selling points.

Compiler messages are first in class, but the borrow checker still makes for quite a brutal learning curve
@njinx @wviana it's amazing at the same time it's annoying 😞
