I think I know what you are talking about, there does seem to be a general sense of elitism in the Rust community. Kind of a thought that Rust is the best language for almost any task, why would you use anything else? I think that thought process is present in many software communities however.

I have found the Rust community to be one of the most helpful and welcoming to beginners, and I don't believe this to be contradictory of what I have mentioned before. Rust developers want their community to grow so to spread the good word. Maybe it comes off too strong sometimes by pointing out where Rust has strengths against other languages, but if that is the among worst the community does, I would consider the community pretty friendly.
