  Yes, note that’s .gov where they also have trouble hiring technical staff of every sort. I happen to work in .gov and we have multiple people writing Rust so anecdotes are not probably reliable. This is better - still a self-selected audience but a large one - and it shows around 10%. That’s not huge but I think it’s larger than “niche” given the growing popularity and impact. https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2022 https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2022
