Rust is generally really nice to write, error handling and enums are incredible but the async story is a nightmare. For me it would be near perfect if you could call async functions from sync functions like in Zig or Go. Or there was at least an official Async executor maintained by the Rust maintainers themselves. For now, Go is my favourite but when you want to go low level like with SIMD for example it isn’t as nice as Rust. For like 99% of use cases Go is just easier.
