So sad. Love F#, and Q# seemed like a natural extension, or at least brotherly.
At a high level, it seemed like F# is more functional like OCaml, than Rust is. I'd like to hear more about the reasoning, was it just performance? How different was it to justify a re-write?
This got me thinking of switching from F# to Rust, so did search and found this article that was good comparison. Others thinking of F# and Rust might dig.

Microsoft gets developer relations.
Why not…just use rust then? I don’t understand the point of all of these niche languages in real life. Python, Go, rust, c, cpp, js, C#, kotlin, but why use others? Each of these have clearly defined strengths and community support.
