+1. As a C++ developer with decade of experience, I'm finding Rust hard. It is a truly innovative language with a rising ecosystem that makes life of developers easier in a lot of areas. But overall the safety and performance benefits do not seem to be worth the effort if you just want to get things done. My thinking is, if you are smart enough to master Rust, and you do need tight control of memory that GC overhead is not worth it, you are probably smart enough to write safer C++.
