I thought the same thing. I started working full time in Rust back in March and the first few weeks I thought “this is ridiculous, it’s so ugly and hard to read”. My background is in C++ for game development (10y) followed by CTO of a web startup (JS/Python/TypeScript), so I know ugly code!

You absolutely do get used to it and I really like the built in formatters. I would write everything in Rust going forward if I could, it really is a different way of thinking about how to write code. I don’t agree it’s the right tool for every job though.
