It is not universal. But imagine you enjoying a programming language (zig, odin, c, c++, …) and half the time some post/article about it comes up, 15% or so of the comments are “kindly” missionaries who just want to let you know how backwards you are, but that there is hope for you yet - as if anyone has been living under a rock solid enough to not hear about Rust.

Honestly, it gets tiresome and adds nothing useful to all these posts. And since those drive-by missionaries aren’t spreading the good word of ocaml/java/go/haskell but Rust - well, then eventually you tire of the Rust community. It has a missionary/redemption problem.
