On: Thirteen Years of Go

[surajrmal]

You can avoid Arc in rust the same way you avoid mutexes in go - use channels instead. I find programming rust with channels between tasks feels quite ergonomic. Also, at least to me, it seems like it's a no brainier to pick a language with a GC if your target runtime environment allows for it.

Mine does. Still picked Rust, and so happy I did. The type system alone does it for me.
