Yeah, that's a no from me. I'm a full time C++ dev and every time I code in Rust it is harder for me to switch back. The author has pointed to some issues regarding performance. In the end, you can always rewrite your code to generate other/better assembly, if you really need the speed. I would argue Rust is so much more that just Rust itself. Like many others after noted, it is not only the language, but the whole ecosystem and oh boy is cargo a joy to use. Yes, CMake works ok with vcpkg, but good luck integrating something that is not CMake. Code style, build script/system and different bugs from different compilers do not make my life easier. In addition, we still have old features we cannot repair because of ABI. It is an endless mess.
