I’m almost with you. If there was a language with a fast compiler, excellent tooling, a robust standard library, static binaries, and an F#-like type system, I’d never use anything else.

Rust simply doesn’t cut it for me. I’m hoping Roc might become this, but I’m not holding my breath.

OCaml? Possibly Haskell as well?

Compiler could be faster, I guess but apart from that Rust has all of those things.

I find Rust's stdlib to be lacking vs Go, and so the average Rust project has a lot of dependencies. To me, Rust feels like the systems-programming equivalent to Node + NPM. Also, the compilation speed was really painful last time I used it. I'm used to the speed of Zig, Hare, Go, Bun. Rust makes me want to jab myself in the eye with a spork.
