In the current state of Rust it has reached complexity of C++. It really does not have a winning ticket anymore on being lean. Instead it is enterprisy monster.

@linuscat I think that async is the point when Rust went wrong.

I never use async or even bothered the learn it. As an alternative I design my own threading model that fits for that app. It's a language feature that embeds a policy, and thus not suitable for language like Rust.

@linuscat async is exactly kind of feature that a web developer would think that would make sense for a systems language.

I recently started playing Rust out of curiosity, because it was new, and I still haven't gotten used to it. I'll see if I can understand it better.
