I would say that different technologies serve a different purpose.

So, saying, that e.g., Zig is generally better or worse than Rust doesn't make any sense to me, as both Languages have a different purpose.

I would much rather use Rust to write a Webserver (in production) than in Zig, simply because Rust serves this purpose better than Zig does. And i personally can consider Zig to be my favourite Language.

I would also never (at least right now) write Website frontends in either Zig or Rust, i think JavaScript in this case, is the obvious choice, because it has been developed (over years) for this (and unfortunately other) use case(s).
