What went wrong here? Nine years have passed since Rust started. Releases have come and gone as scheduled, and many long promised features have finally landed. Some software is now written in Rust and bits of it may live on forever. Yet, as time went by, the project noticed a troubling trend: each new release brought fewer new users than the last. Barely enough new users to offset those who lost interest or otherwise moved on.
Rust never took over. Some would tell you that it is only a matter of time, but the ranks of such true believers are slowly shrinking. Many core team members abandoned ship in the last 12 months. Realists seem more frank: most languages fail and even getting as far as Rust did was quite an anomaly.
What's wrong with you guys? Mozilla delivered the perfect language and you let it wither and die.
