It's worth it, imo. I was in your boat a few months back and hated every minute of it. With that said, i'm still not 100%. I semi-regularly see syntax that makes me go "Wat is what!?", but then i sit for a moment and understand it. Rust introduces a lot of visual baggage and that seems to cause me syntax blindness.. not enjoyable.

Unfortunately though, i'm back on Go. I want to be on Rust, but i had to pick a language for work and i can't ask my Team to go through what i did. Rust, despite the safety, is too unnatural for our larger codebase.

Luckily i think Rust has seated itself as the language we will use if the need is truly there. Unfortunately though, not everything.. just the specific things that need it.
