Rust is boaring! I ll never use Rust for something I build for fun.

It will be a shame if new programmers will stay away from C because of all the scaremongering regarding the consequences of not freeing some memory (in some toy, pet project) in their own computers.

You seem to believe that Rust prevents memory leaks. It does not, and that's not what "memory safety" means.

		Yes, Rust does not guarantee that it'll prevent memory leaks. But the design of the language does make it harder for you (and your collaborators/dependencies) to accidentally leak memory compared to, say, C++.
