As a C developer who has never really used C++ or Rust I sort of agree. Looking at Rust introductory guides I increasingly get the same feeling as looking at C++ things, where there's just _too much_ of everything. I know it's a subjective feeling that is probably unfair to the language, but it's still the impression I get.
I'm confident if I actually put in the work to learn Rust I would end up liking it and I plan on doing that at some point, but it certainly doesn't help my motivation.

So you are saying: “As someone who has never really used A or B I agree with the comparison of A and B.” Pretty much sums up some of the comments here. People who don’t spent much (or any) time with Rust make (or support) wild statements like this. Rust is what you can learn in a few weeks, C++ takes a lifetime and then you are dead.
