Was Rust a mistake? #10564
Description
Looking at the issues with lack of mobile ports due to Rust compilation issues (see other issues about that), and the lack of bindings for various GUI libraries since those libraries would require Rust ports/wrappers, makes me wonder something in general for @ry:
- What are your opinions about the decision to choose Rust for this project?
- In hindsight, was it a better choice than C++?
I know that Rust enforces safer code and memory management, but it seems to hinder this project from getting ports of popular C++ GUI libraries. Kind of the same issue that Rust in general has.
