If you're 'tired of chasing pointers', Rust's a lot closer to (and I'd argue better than) Python than say Go - it'll tell you where the issue is and usually how to fix it; Go will just blow up at run time. (Python (where applicable) will do something unexpected and wrong but potentially not error (..great!)) (Fwiw I use all three, Python professionally.)
