    It has a decent idea that can already be implemented in C++ as well, but it also has a bloody fucking awful syntax that even it’s own mother can’t love

    Overall, hyped to death because people’s misconception of how safe it actually is and the fact that many think memory safety is strictly a rust feature

      If you’re complaining about “bloody awful syntax” (which is probably the last thing I’d criticize rust for) in the same breath as “just use C++ instead” (paraphrased but that’s what you mean, right?) I don’t think I have anything else to say to you.

      I hope you have a nice weekend!

        I meant borrow checker could be done in C++ lol C++ can always get verbose syntactically when working in large projects. Honestly I prefer Go and Dart’s C-like syntax

          Memory safety isn’t really the main draw on rust for me. Traits and the very powerful enums are both higher on the list for me personally. There’s a reason people use rust for all sorts of things and projects of all sizes.
