This is also true where I am in Australia. There are very few Rust jobs.

However, from the first two comments on the article :

"We use Rust at AWS (in my org) for every new project that would have previously been written in c++.

Microsoft is the same. All new services running on VM-hosting nodes (i.e. domains where C# is explicitly not allowed) have to use Rust now. It's a top-down mandate.

There's also AI investment in converting C/C++ services to Rust, but I have a negative opinion on that investment"

So there is clearly a substantial amount of Rust being written in some places.
