Eh, I think a lot of it is right tool for the right job. I see Rust being used in a lot of places it doesn’t make sense. As a C replacement sure, go for it. CLi apps… Okay I guess? I’ve just seen folks build stuff just as good with GoLang or much faster with Python. I think there is a very vocal group of Rust devs in the FOSS space, which I think makes a lot of folks think it’s more popular then it really is, especially in a professional setting.
