> I'm a fan of Java's synchronized, and sometimes wish that Rust had something higher-level object-level synchronization primitive that was safer than messing with raw mutexes (which never seems to end well). I'm not a Java expert. But from looking it up it seems like Java's synchronized is worse in every way to Rusts Mutex(And you most of the time shouldn't even be using mutexes in Rust). You forget a synchronized annotation? Too bad. Whereas a mutex in Rust protects the access to a variable. You literally can't modify it (well modulo unsafe) unless you lock the mutex.
