It's not that new; nearly 10 years old now I think. Go's adoption was faster

I think Go thrives in a much more popular field (web services, etc.) and it's also designed to be easy to pick up so I'm not surprised this was the case.

Isnt the first stable language version from 2018?

		1.0 was in May of 2015, but that was closer to an MVP with stability guarantees than the full language. It wasn't until 2018 that Rust was as usable for most tasks. Everything you might have learned back then is still available, just a lot of restrictions have been removed, and there are more to come.
