I believe not mentioning Rust whenever possible is strictly forbidden as "mean behavior" in the Rust Code of Conduct.

It's actually the opposite. If anything being evangelical about Rust is heavily discouraged

The truth is Rust is an amazing language, with its own warts (async, Pin, etc.), but there is pent up demand for language that fits its description. Non-manual, non-GC low level oriented language. It's not a wonder some projects are switching to Rust

What exactly is switching to Rust?
Hg, in context of this discussion, but even Dropbox moved some of its software to Rust.
