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:

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
