> I love and use rust, it is my favorite language and I use it in several of my OSS projects but I'm tired of this "rewrite it in rust" evangilism and the reputational damage they do to the rust community.

This right here.

As a side-note, I was reading one of Cloudflare's docs on how it implemented its firewall rules, and it's so utterly disappointing how the document stops being informative suddenly start to reads like a parody of the whole cargo cult around Rust. Rust this, Rust that, and I was there trying to read up on how Cloudflare actually supports firewall rules. The way they focus on a specific and frankly irrelevant implementation detail conveys the idea things are ran by amateurs that are charmed by a shiny toy.
