Rust introduces some pretty awesome concepts, but I see why it might be controversial to some. I (sadly) have no use case for it though.

I think the “controversy” is just tribalism. I've never once witnessed a case of any of the negative adjectives thrown at the Rust community. They've always taken exceedingly fair and good-faith approaches to discussing any critique of the language.

Their snark is reserved for the weird “anti-woke” crowd that hates Rust for some reason.
