Don’t 99% of people don’t need the efficiency boost of not having a garbage collector. Instead learn a Functional Programming Language like Scala, OCaml or F#
Or both? Functional languages are good to be familiar with, but so is Rust's strict ownership model. Both lead to better code in all languages.
