The close proximity of these statements is interesting to me. The only thing that is really novel and interesting about Rust is the borrow checker. That's why you have "fearless concurrency", because you can't have accidental shared+mutable state. If you see the borrow checker as something you "fight", you don't "love" Rust. Rust is far from the only strongly typed language. If you pick Rust because it's strongly typed, you're probably picking the wrong tool for the job.

It’s the only language that has a decent type system, that is fast and that you can ship stuff in.

Ok.

Do you get Rust performance or something using this? Not really right? The DOM is the DOM. Unless you rewrite the DOM and rendering in Rust, you are literally picking the most unnecessary tool to make websites with.
