@rumba@Croquette They’re is a lot of people scrambling to rewrite existing c projects in rust for what?
for example ffmpegs rust rewrite is slower than the c version we need more maintainers rather than creating new rust alternatives that have no purpose

If you want to ignore re-making things out of memory-safe technology as an advancement, we don’t really have anything to talk about here.
I know Rust superficially. I use it to create simple tests for my embedded projects, so mostly just serial terminal with keyboard inputs.
It works a lot better for me than python because Rust is a lot closer to C than python.
So I cannot comment on Rust shortcomings. I was interested in knowing for what kind of projects Rust wasn’t good.
