I don't have a use for Rust on my daily work, and would rather see Java finally adopt the features it missed down from Oberon and Modula-3 for systems programming, however we will have to disagree on the "mediocre" adoption.

So many language designers would dream to have such adoption numbers by tech giants for their hobby language.

Of course Rust is very popular compared to any hobby language (and many non-hobby languages), but that is not the goal it set for itself to be judged by.
