I tried to learn Rust but found it very difficult and complicated to learn. I kept having to fight with the compiler to do even the simplest of memory/ lifetime management. I am a seasoned C developer and for me C was much easier. I think this will be the downfall of Rust as I hear it all the time from other developers who try it out.


Before anybody takes this specific prediction too seriously, this guy posted numerous misleading claims about Actix's use of `unsafe` in another thread before deleting them and seems to have a strange vendetta against Rust in general.
