> They used a checkbox, blanket argument against GCs, where the discussion was specifically about Go. It is just something I've noticed about the Rust team -- they overwhelmingly hold Go as their foe, and most if not all advocacy seems to be targeted at Go. > EDIT: I should add that a quick perusal of their comment history finds them engaged in many, many Go threads, always dismissive of Go. Again, to be active in Rust seems to be some sort of call-to-arms against Go. I've written a ton of Go code and a bit of Rust code and I love both languages. FWIW, I disagree that the Rust team is dismissive of Go. I've always found their comments to be well balanced and cognizant of the relevant trade offs involved when comparing two languages like Go and Rust.
