No, i like Rust very much. But Rust require from me to deep dive with language, it's not productive language, it's correct from start to end language.
Language with optional GC, value types like Nim or D are better for small hobby projects. But community and library ecosystem and tooling are weak.
On other hand there are Ocaml and F#. But Ocaml for windows is weak, community is small etc F# inherits problems from c#
That's a fair point, but I don't find Rust really harder to use than Go for small hobby projects. Swift is nice as a language but has a huge lack of libraries.
