My hopes for Rust is that they take their async coloured functions back to the drawing board because they are really not fun to deal with, and improve the FFI story with C. Easy interface with C and it's weird memory rules is of utmost importance if we want to replace C with something a little more solid.

But yeah, serialization in Rust is a breeze compared to Go. Probably one of the things I hated the most, along with the errnil boilerplate.

I've been working in the async space for a few years now and it may just be survivor bias, but while I think there are definitely some issues, I'm still largely happy with it. It's still evolving after all. If they can get the cancellation issues sorted and async in traits that would be a good place.

What were your issues with the C FFI? That usually gets praise from people.
