Two things have kept me away from embedded Rust before

  1. A huge chain of dependencies. Security issues aside,  I prefer my embedded code to be lean and clean.

  2. A big departure from how things used to be done in this world. For example interrupt handlers almost look like AWS lambda code to me. Maybe that's the future,  I don't know. But right now I am not comfortable with this way of doing low level coding.
But I am keeping an open mind and will probably try it again soon.

I can see myself using Rust instead of C in more projects, but maybe first after things calm down a bit. I want my development environment outdated and boring, a.k.a. "stable".
