I’m currently suffering a dilemma and I’m considering using Odin over Rust.
I was hoping for friendly and positively constructive assessments of which language and why from anyone who wishes to answer?

I’ve never heard of
Odin, and I don’t know anyone being paid to write code inRust.Source: I hire and mentor professional programmers.
Edit: I assumed you were picking for breaking into the field, but I see from your other replies that this is for a hobby project. For my hobby projecs, I use whichever amuses me.
I’m paid to write rust. It’s better than writing C, Java or Cyton.
I believe you!
Edit: But you all can probably still pry C from my cold dead hands someday, lol. C is a perfectly cromulent language, for my purposes.
For a language constantly voted as most desired for x number if years in a row (stackoverflow survey), there are now quite a few developers actively working with Rust full-time and paid. I think it’s in top 20 languages by now.
Yeah. I didn’t mean to imply otherwise. But
quite a fewdoesn’t always cut it to break into the field.But my concern was entirely misplaced as they’re picking for a hobby project anyway.
It’s certainly growing fast. And yeah, tops the desired charts.
Python did that for years, and is now at number 4 (after the big three JavaScript, SQL and HTML).
I, too, see great things in the future for Rust.
I also agree, Rust is likely top 20, but it feels (from hjobs search anecdotes from peers) like there’s a massive drop off in real world use after the top 8 or 10.
But again, my concern was entirely misplaced, as they’re not picking their first break-into-coding language, anyway.
