That... Seems bad. Sorry to jab but is optics also why they decided on confusing non-standard async syntax?
I always thought that for open source software, the more terrible the website the better it was. A site too slick may ruin Rust's reputation

There is no such thing as "standard" async syntax unfortunately. The Rust language team is trying to find the optimal blend of ergonomics and consistency when there isn't a clear winner. It feels like pointless bike shedding to many, but a decision like how to handle strings has bifurcated the Python community for years.
Personally I don't like that the new website doesn't even display rust's syntax (what it looks like) on the homepage anymore.
