Don’t be so sure… I work for “megacorp” and about a year ago word came from on-high: “thou shalt not C (or C++, not that they know the difference) anymore. We are in mortal fear of embarassment that we allowed a mistake to be made that our all seeing oversight should have prevented by mandating the use of safe tools.”
That’s still rather recently, and there’s rather a large stock of ‘before people’ hanging around. But I agree inasmuch as it’ll change as time goes by and one day you’ll be right.
Well, academic exercises for grades, I’d call Rust students.
Throw away programs people do for fun, I’d call Rust hobbyists.
Pretty much anyone else, doing it for money (a living: roof over head, food on table), or open source contribution - I think they qualify.
In that case, stil reckon a higher proportion ofl Rust devs contribute to Linux than C devs
