I don't know Rust, but I know C and C programming can't be "easier" than anything else. The people that say that are either hard core C programmers that know how to juggle with void* and have had a career limited to targeting specific platforms or people that don't know what they're talking about. And the only thing worse than C is C++. As for beginners, I simply can't believe that C can be easier than Rust, when C's idea of memory management is basically malloc() and free(), with everybody having a custom implementation, not to mention the gazillion string implementations, all broken and incompatible, along with having nothing resembling a portable memory model. Sure, it makes sense in the context of the Linux kernel, but in the user space the fact that C and C++ are still used is a tragedy.
