> Writing Rust for web (Actix, Axum) is no different than writing Go, Jetty, Flask, etc. in terms of developer productivity. It's super easy to write server code in Rust.

I would definitely disagree with this after building a micro service (url shortener) in rust. Rust requires you to rethink your design in unique ways, so that you generally cant do things in the 'dumbest way possible' as your v1. I found myself really having to rework my design-brain to fit rusts model to please the compiler.

Maybe once that relearning has occurred you can move faster, but it definitely took a lot longer to write an extremely simple service than I would have liked. And scaling that to a full api application would likely be even slower.

Caveat that this was years ago right when actix 2 was coming out I believe, so the framework was in a high amount of flux in addition to needing to get my head around rust itself.
