REAL
Rust tends to break or not work entirely outside of modern PCs running Linux or Windows and this also annoys me a lot lol, this is the reason we don't have Firefox on 32-bit PowerPC machines either :(
You can't even build Rust on machines with less than 4 GB of main memory at this point
Also suffers from the C++ problem of being so overcomplicated that independent implementations are extremely difficult to write
Deeply unportable language pretending to be a new operating system
