Disclaimer: I'm not in the 'rust community' (nor would I want to be!). I'm not an evangelist for it, and I'm not very good at it. I like the language though. Anyway... I really think people need to get over syntax. I don't find rust particularly good looking either, but I get over that because I like the semantics and it sits in a nice place in the ecosystem of programming languages. Likewise i don't like how C# uses PascalCase everywhere, or puts opening braces on its own line - yet when I program in C#, I adhere to those conventions. Syntax is incredibly subjective, and also superficial. If you think the semantics of a language suck or are not a fit for what you are doing - that's a reasonable conversation. But you really shouldn't limit your language choice based on non-alphanumeric characters or whatever your objection is. |

I like the semantics of Rust, I actually use Rust, and plan on continuing to do so. I still hate the syntax and module system though.
