I had a very nice experience when trying rust with a couple of friends. I just wrote rust much like I would write scheme and, after using immutable.rs, I wrote pretty efficient code without actually fighting the borrow checker at all. My friends, coming from hopelessly mutable languages like python, could hardly get any work done at all. This was back in late 2017, and things might have gotten better since.
