I’m not making any point about Go in my post, not trying to compare them, only to speak about Rust’s situation here, since that’s the question that was asked.

I have written some, but not a ton, of go. It is opinionated in ways that are very different than my own opinions, and so I didn’t enjoy it very much. That said, I deeply respect the Go team, and am glad others really like it. I’m not really the best person to compare the two languages, which is why I try not to do it.
