I've written a few backend APIs with rust and I have to disagree. Not only have the frameworks managed to get the ergonomics similar to your popular GC lang[0][1], the natural lack of shared mutable state of HTTP handlers means you very rarely have to encounter lifetimes and a lot of the language's advanced features. What's more, now when I go back to work with other languages, I can't help but notice the significant number of unit tests I'd not have had to write in Rust. It doesn't have a Rails and Django but it's an easy pick over anything at the language level. A note on performance, Rust's the only langauge where I haven't had the need to update my unit test harnesses to `TRUNCATE` tables instead of creating/discarding a separate database per test on PostgresSQL. I'll also like to mention the gem that is SQLx[1]. As someone who's neve

Almost to the point that amount of effort the community's put to building great tools like Prisma.js and <insert favorite ORM> feel like a fool's errand (at least so for PosgreSQL).
