I disagree. The main difference in social dynamics of Go and Rust projects is that Rust forces you to model more of your domain upfront. This is a good thing, in my experience, even if it takes a little bit longer to get going because you end up with a more accurate picture of what your data looks like. Most importantly it provides you the tools to enforce the data model in ways that Go does not. It definitely lacks Go's many footguns too.

Of course writing async code in Go is easier because of goroutines, but apart from that technically they are so different that it is a waste comparing the two.
