I wrote some Go code for talking LDAPs and doing some CRUD Ops. Do I love this code? Nope. Do I love the product that I built? Very Much.
I think love of language is somehow very much a Rust thing at least compared to Go.
> Rust on the other hand is optimized for maintaining
This seems to be a tall claim. So often in Rust some or other library, web framework goes defunct or abandoned. And they are not exactly in finished state so no maintenance is required. Same thing happens with other languages too. But Rust is quite young, even then we have abandoned projects. In 10 years I am not sure how Rust codebases will be more maintained not less. Now one can say maintenance point is about commercial projects where people are paid to maintain. Still then not sure how loved it would be by maintainers when original developers are long gone.
