Rust 2024 the Year of Everywhere?

Rust is rather lean - you'd have to give up something to simply. e.g. most simpler languages are GC languages. That said, GC shouldn't be a problem for 90% of apps.

Now, it's not unlikely that eventually Rust will accrete enough baggage to need replacement too - I'm guessing we have 20 years minimum until that happens?

It seems like a section of those enthused already left quite publically, maybe a couple years ago, once async was added with that syntax.

I'm not entirely sure what this is referring to? If it's something about Rust's postfix await syntax, it's quite lovely in practice, and even if someone disagreed they wouldn't leave the language over something like that.

Scanning back over the past couple years, there's plenty of commentary about coloring in async Rust
