It also drives me insane when i dump the problems i have with Rust about this exact issue, that i usually have to restructure my code to satisfy the compilers needs, and they come at me with the "Skill Issue" club...

I honestly don't even know what to respond to that, but it's kind of weird to me to honestly think that you'd need essentially a "PhD" in order to use a tool...

It's an amazing piece of marketing to corner anyone who dislikes a certain hassle as being mentally deficient - that's what "skill issue" means in this context.

“Skill issue” definitely does not means “mentally deficient”. It comes from the videogames world, where it is used to disparage the lack of training/natural ability of other players; frequently accompanied by “get good”, i.e. continue training & grinding to up your skill.

Not saying that Rust is necessarily easy to pick up, but hundreds of thousands of people use Rust without a PhD in any subject.

Try and appreciate the humor in what you're replying to without fully discounting the point of it.

It is of course an exaggeration, but that's what is somewhat annoying to me. But dismissing this point by just saying me "get better" after literally years of using Rust is a bit of a weak point, or am i in the wrong here?

And it's not even that i dislike the language, but this is evangelism to just dismiss the point of my argument with "skill issue". A tool isn't supposed to be difficult, it should help you in whatever you're trying to achieve, not making it more difficult.
