It's actually really fun once you get the hang of it and realize the compiler is there to help you ship code that runs! This person hit a rough spot and got very frustrated basically... It happens, it's part of learning. The hardest thing about rust is, it tells you straight up when you don't understand something you are trying to do. For people who are otherwise productive and think they know certain things, this can be an ego slap. In return it makes you a better programmer because you learned something, it's just a bitter pill sometimes. In my opinion this person should have gone to rust discord/discourse, and asked for help. A lot of this would have been explained. Some of what they dealt with are rough edges that require practice to overcome though. But yea, lots of people are happily shipping async code in rust, right now. It's very possible.
