I personally went from Go (slightly mingling with it) -> Rust 1.0 (wrote my first applications with it) and found it to be incredibly easy to learn in comparison to C, C++, Java, and even Python and JavaScript. Everything's pretty explicit and straightforward, and the API documentation and associated resources are stellar.
