> I'd say if you know and like Rust, then Gleam should be easy to pick up
I think by sentiments like this, people mean if you know unions, records, and pattern matching then you'll more easily pick up another language that has unions, records, and pattern matching.
Yep, that's essentially what I mean. There's even this official cheatsheet[1] that shows a lot of overlap.

This shows only the base syntax and has nothing of the language functionality, so is incapable of showing overlap between the languages.
