Rust is actually quite suitable for a number of domains where it was never intended to excel.

Writing web service backends is one domain where Rust absolutely kicks ass. I would choose Rust/(Actix or Axum) over Go or Flask any day. The database story is a little rough around the edges, but it's getting better and SQLx is good enough for me.

edit: The downvoters are missing out.
