I can only speak for myself, but I kind of refused to get started with Rust until async landed... only because it's kind of a core of scalable services. I think it's pretty great in that you can use an async runtime, but still launce native threads if you want/need to for specific scenarios. It's pretty great and for most high level tasks, I wouldn't classify it as significantly more difficult than C#.
A few other things I've done with it have been written by AI as much as myself... which has similarly been pretty nice... Rust code can be very easy to reason with (lifetime syntax not withstanding). For some reason Rust lifetimes burn my soul.
