you could ask the same question for every os. And none choose Rust even the recent like fushia. BTW go ask Linus to switch to Rust I'm waiting for you there.

- ilovecaching 8y agoFuchsia is using Rust for some pieces. That's what I assume MS would do. MS is a company with tons of products, not just an OS, and certainly not a single monolith. You wouldn't rewrite everything in a day, you would slowly move things over time.
- sanxiyn 8y agoFuchsia implements TCP/IP stack in Go. It is an improvement over others.
- pjmlp 8y agoLinus is never going to switch to anything else other than C, UNIX is married to C. So it is always going to be something else, not UNIX related. Fuchsia uses Rust and Go in several areas. Microsoft is using Rust on VSCode, Azure and IoT Core.
