Rust is actually really fun to work with. Don't let random naysayers on hn convince you otherwise, try it for a month or three and form your own opinion.

There is something magical about wri5ing code that is as fast as C++ but with a fraction of the bugs and effort.

Seconded. After you use it for a few months it begins to click and makes sense.

I use C and C++ when I have to work with legacy code, but choose Rust for new projects.
