Rust haters, unite! Fil-C aims to Make C Great Again

MakeAvoy

Personally I think Rust is a joy to code in, and the syntactic sugar is tasty. But I know writing lifetimes is frustrating, there's still scenarios where unsafe is needed, and async between threads is hellish. But the compiler with it's clear and concise error output instills a lot and of confidence in my code that no other language has. If these new C compilers really can guarantee safety maybe I'll try going back to C, but it's going to take a lot to pull me away from cargo.
