All the noise I see is from people insisting that Rust developers are noisy, and their favorite language is much better types-don’t-solve-bugs-undefined-behavior-is-fine-and-memory-errors-are-not-a-problem.
Actual Rust developers have been silent for years.
I once shared that I had a bad first experience with Rust and no less than four Rust developers arrived to inform me that I was either hallucinating, or bad at programming, or both.
I haven’t had this much fun winding up a sensitive community since I shared how I really felt about Java Spring, in it’s heyday.
I tend to stick to interpreted languages so I can’t weigh in on the Rust vs. C++ debate, but I know that if you’re trying to make headway against a language as entrenched as C++ is you’ve got to get loud.

Bloody hell mate. A little bit of warning before so casually dropping Java Spring out there.
Sorry. I’ll use the content warning format next time.
As a rust dev myself… It’s my right to be obnoxious
