Yes, TIOBE is garbage. The biggest problem is that because they're coy about methodology we don't even know what we're talking about. Rust's "Most Loved" Stack Overflow numbers were at least a specific thing where you can say OK that doesn't mean there's more Rust software or that Rust programmers get paid more, apparently the people programming in Rust really like Rust, more so than say, Python programmers loved Python - so that's good to know, but it's that and not anything else.
