I wanted to like Rust (memory safety and performance - what's not to like?) but both of my experiments with it ended in frustration. It seemed a way too complex language for what I needed.
Recently, a coworker of mine made a great observation that made everything clear to me. I was looking for a replacement for C, but Rust is actually a replacement for C++. Totally different beast - powerful but complex. I need to see if Zig is any closer to C in spirit.
