Rust is a language with advances and flaws compared to C++ (and presumably C too). I think Rust made some bad decisions to the point I would avoid using it for certain classes of software (generally low-level code, or emulators with complex shared mutability by design). My ire is directed at people like pcwalton who argue that it's wrong to design non-watertight-safe languages like Zig at all for application development, and mjg59 who argue unsafe language creators should be held legally liable for users harmed by programs written in those languages.
