I hate Rust. It's too time inefficient and hard to learn and the error messages don't make sense. There is already too mich choice in tools to use and its community is very Hipster.

It has a steep learning curve, no two ways about it.

In return you get a lot of power, and eliminate several broad categories of bug for zero performance cost. How many competing tools offer that?

Personally I find the errors quite helpful, but I come from the land of late 90s C++ template vomit...

If you want to build a webapp it's probably a daft choice (for example) but for several other wide categories of software it's truly groundbreaking.
