This was a really good summary of what Rust feels like in my opinion. I’m still a beginner myself but I recognize what this article is saying very much.
The hacker news comments are as usual very good too:

I started with Rust but now it’s also all Go for backend. I’m just not smart enough for Rust. It’s too much to think about that has nothing to do with what my program is trying to solve.
That being said, Rust is superior in many ways if you can handle the effort of writing it.
Yeah idk Rust seems superior in the less useful ways. Go’s tooling, fast build times, hyper efficient parallel GC (not kidding, it’s world class), interfaces, and simplicity are really killer features. Though honestly, even after many years, channels still confuse me - it’s like plumbing, but plumbing needs pressure gauges, emergency valves, and buffers - so it always ends up with this string cheese of events spread over multiple files. I end up using a mutex half the time
