While some people complain about the Rust community being evangelical, you'll find this is common. We've built a culture of helping answer questions, sometimes to the point of being too enthusiastic about it. If you ever need help, jumping into the forums or various chat platforms will usually get you a courteous answer in minutes.

We aren't perfect, but this is one of the aspects of the Rust community I'm most proud of.

To be completely honest, I think you’ve had a bigger impact than most in making the community that way.

You were a huge boon to the Ruby/Rails community, and you’ve taken that experience and been instrumental in building a helpful, enthusiastic, and friendly community around Rust. One of these days I hope our paths cross so I can buy you a drink.

Aw shucks, thank you! That’d be great. Someday!
