This was a really good summary of what Rust feels like in my opinion. I’m still a beginner myself but I recognize what this article is saying very much.

The hacker news comments are as usual very good too:

    @kaffiene @asdfasdfasdf by which i mean:

    if you want to develop on the level of a engine, even if you’re not makign a entire engine, Rust is IMO the most productive language. But these things also take a lot of time, which is why you don’t see big games being finished. There are some like Tiny Glade where the devs built a entire custom renderer on the other hand.
