This comment echoes a common sentiment of Rust and Go somehow being in the same category (maybe because of the "systems programming language" buzzphrase) but they're really not.
Comparing a language with a fairly significant runtime and garbage collection to a language with basically no runtime and strict (albeit largely automated) compile-time memory management is comparing chalk and cheese. You might as well say "I tried C++ but ended up going with Python because it was quicker to code" -- of course it was!
