    Wow, 14% from Germany? That’s incredible!

    Also, 6.4% said they don’t use Rust because the community is unwelcoming, which is really sad to hear, but I’m glad the number is relatively low.

    I’m also surprised “disk space usage” isn’t an issue for many. I just cleared out dozens of GB of disk use by Rust, and I had to fix my CI/CD to clear itself properly.

    Anyway, interesting results, thanks for posting!

    I don’t understand the complaint of “subpar IDE support”.

    It has the best IDE support of any language I’ve tried. It’s IDE support is also just a language server, which you can just download in your editor of choice and it just works. Are the people that complain about it not using rust-analyzer?

    I feel like they could ask way more interesting questions. Probably the only really interesting thing here is people’s top complaints about Rust, which is to be fair a really great list.

    I would really love to see something similar for other languages. Imagine if you could see ranked pros and cons for every language!
