It is of course an exaggeration, but that's what is somewhat annoying to me. But dismissing this point by just saying me "get better" after literally years of using Rust is a bit of a weak point, or am i in the wrong here?

And it's not even that i dislike the language, but this is evangelism to just dismiss the point of my argument with "skill issue". A tool isn't supposed to be difficult, it should help you in whatever you're trying to achieve, not making it more difficult.
