I have more experience with Go + interact with it more regularly at work, whereas choosing Rust was mostly for fun/exploration. I realized I don't have the bandwidth currently to learn/debug a new language I'm unfamiliar with, especially when I don't have strong requirements for memory-safety or performance. This is just a hobby project for me, so I'm moving to a standard network stack that I'm comfortable with in Go.

I'm not completely abandoning Rust, however, as I am still using it for some other personal projects. I am having a good time writing CLI tools + cargo package management/build system is incredible.
