You are definitely not the only one. Nothing has put me off of Rust more than "Rust people". The same thing happened to me with Python over 20 years ago and I've successfully (and happily) avoided that language for over 20 years because of just how unbelievably, unstoppably "effervescent" Python people were in the late 1990s. If Python were 10% as good as those people said is was, it would be, by a wide margin, mankind's greatest achievement for the next 10 millennia. I get the exact same vibe from "Rustaceans."
