Please reach out on the diesel discussion forum[1] about the lacking dev experience. I'm happy to discuss these issues and potential solutions there.

Thank you weiznich! Tbh, it's really hard to come up with concrete proposals to solve these problems, and I still haven't figured out how much of the "not-super-easy-to-learn" issue with Diesel is inherent complexity that can't be avoided if one wants to have runtime-constructed-and-yet-compile-time-checked db queries in Rust.

I think it will require some thought. I hope that, once I get around to using diesel in a second substantial project (already using it for my first), I will write up my thoughts on how to make DX better for diesel.
