The phrase "anything but X" means the opposite of X (e.g. see [1]). So, "anything but pleasant" means "unpleasant". I think the commenter just used it incorrectly.

Sorry about the weird phrasing. I did mean that I have always "found it pleasant" dealing with the Rust community. I'm appalled at myself for the silly manner in which I phrased that. I guess I intended to say: "I have found it nothing but pleasant", but instead ended up tying myself up in knots.
