> I can't wait to see results. Until now, the only real world usage was for coreutils in Ubuntu I spent five years working at a company (Materialize) whose main product is entirely in Rust. Since then I work at a company (Polar Signals) where sadly I have to use C and Go, but the main backend storage layer is in Rust. And several of our customers use Rust and it would be a show-stopping bug for them if our product stopped working on Rust codebases. Besides all that, plenty of companies you’ve heard of are now writing large amounts of new code in Rust — most notably Meta and Amazon. Large parts of Firefox are in Rust and have been for years. Ubuntu coreutils is underselling it a bit.
