New #RustLang projects are popping up all over the place. Many of them quickly reach feature parity with their non-Rust predecessors, then beat them both in functionality and performance. Seeing all this, it's hard not to think of Rust as a language that makes rapid development and deployment possible, and that outperforms other programming languages.
While I won't argue that Rust has its advantages, that's not the real reason here. In my opinion, it's all about its popularity. All the cool kids use Rust nowadays, and cool kids are precisely the kind of people who have time and energy to develop stuff rapidly. Add to that corporations investing in the next boom, and delivering a full-time paid workforce and funding, the culture of code reuse (i.e. sharing lots of crates), and last but not least, the benefit of starting from scratch.
Old folk like us, who barely manage enough energy to keep things alive, can't compete with that. However, we have one advantage. We don't care about being cool anymore. We aren't going to pack our bags and run after the next shiny thing, whenever the next best thing since sliced bread gets invented.
