it’s more “it forces you to make it burrow checker friendly”.
A burrow checker is not the only mechanism to write safe code. All the mess of Rust is all because this is the strategy they adopted.
And this strategy, like everything in this world, has trade offs. It just happens that there are a lot, like, - a lot -, of trade offs, and those are insufferable when it comes to Rust…
Zig is “c”, but modern and safe.
The big selling points compared to Rust are:
The syntax is really close to the C language; any C programmer can pick up Zig really fast.
IMO Zig is a far better choice to go in the kernel than Rust.
Linux has tried to include CPP in it, and it failed.
So imagine if trying to fit in a C-like cousin failed, how far they are to fit an alien language like Rust…

And probably sometime the guy who executed the command…
I went for a blood test two days ago.
The girls came back sprinting with some papers, asking me how it was possible???
I asked calmly what was going on, right? That’s when she said she never saw, in her entire life, such beautiful, elegant, fast and clean blood!
I was like: “darling, that’s because Zig is flowing in my veins, I just can’t stop using it”…
That being said, I totally agree with you.
As a Linux only user, I totally agree with your message.
People who downvote you aren’t of good faith, are delusional or just dumb.
Linux is better in every single category except ease of use for non-technical users and gaming.
Let’s stop with this bandwagon of MS bad, Linux good; Linux is good enough for us to not lie and speak the truth…
Void.
It all started by curiosity: “let’s try this no-where distros for the lulz”
Then it ended up to be the distro I am using everywhere.
It’s stable and quite on the “bleeding edge” in term of software versions…
And damn it’s fast son!
The new technology is: show a message saying “Whoaa! You have busted your limit!” on every search.
I didn’t do a search for 6 months, but whhooaaa! Calm down with your searches!
