      Rust is the currently most adopted C replacement

      Where’s the data you’re using to measure that?

        This shows something else. The traditional languages are all more common than Rust.

        I suppose Go could be a good competitor, and I read a thread comparing C=Go, C++=Rust.

        I just see a lot more rust in many projects, and it is well integrated with GTK for example. I also know of several drivers and modules written in Rust.

        At least in Linux, Go seems to be used for WebTech more than for other things.

        I am interested in a discussion about that, as I would like to learn one of these languages, but Rust seems to have a better ecosystem with more adaption, ready GUI toolkits, a Linux Desktop, multiple GTK apps etc. in the making, while for example “Fyne”, Go GUI toolkit (that I found in the Flatpak “Rymdport”) doesnt even have Wayland support yet.
