I’m fairly certain this is the case. The people who seem to want everything rewritten in Rust are not necessarily also people who actually use the language. They likely just heard that it improves security and stability to use Rust over C. Would be similar to the people who bring up Ada as an alternative; the chances that they’ve actually tried it are minuscule.
And to be very clear I’m not trying to say there is no overlap at all, but I don’t think you can call the Rust community toxic because of those people.
(I wonder if the people who treat Rust like a religion realize how harmful their behavior is. I want Rust to be seen as a reasonable option, but that’s difficult when you have the evangelists scaring people away)
