Have you used a lot of go? I'm a big fan of rust and definitely like rust devs and the rust community, but I find that people haven't used go enough to "get" it don't really understand just how much it can take away from cognitive load.

Rust and go are not really comparable in this regard, even if rust is much better than most people realize. There are too many ways to approach a problem in rust.

That said, definitely there are plenty of places where rust is a much better language choice than go

I’m not making any point about Go in my post, not trying to compare them, only to speak about Rust’s situation here, since that’s the question that was asked.

I have written some, but not a ton, of go. It is opinionated in ways that are very different than my own opinions, and so I didn’t enjoy it very much. That said, I deeply respect the Go team, and am glad others really like it. I’m not really the best person to compare the two languages, which is why I try not to do it.
