    I learned a bit of rust and I think it’s just about getting used to it. It’s fairly subjective, and people say the same about C++. I also prefer the C syntax because I find it’s simplicity extremely elegant and prefer it to have fewer features. And I like it for it’s consistency, on linux the FHS is based up on C, and it just somewhat feels ugly to break that consistency.

    But I also acknowledge the advantages of rust.

    It is possible, it would bring in quite a few restrictions though. The bigger problem I see is that it wouldn’t be entirely clear as an end user whether a program is memory safe or not. However, this isn’t the case with rust neither. Maybe some kind of certification would help
