I guess it largely depends where one looks, to pick up that kind of perception.
There are technical discussions out there.
There’s much I admire about rust (viewed from afar, yet to even try coding anything in it yet), some of it tugs me away from my beloved Haskell, and then some of it repels me again. And regardless of either, there are aspects that cause chagrin about it being put in things like the linux kernel and replacements for coreutils, and other essential things, not least of which is how much further that takes us away from curt bytecode. Cant really do the likes of tinycore so easily with rustification, afaiu. But I understand many aspects are very alluring to coders. And then a lot of it gets overhyped… with over-eager premature implementation, causing harms, including to perceptions of rust. Gently does it. Tortoise wins the race.
I dont know about “most”.
