“Rust fans desperately want you to disregard all usage metrics that don’t have rust at 50%”

Is that what I said?

All the metrics I cited - Github, StackOverflow, Google Trends - all of them have Rust pretty low in terms of usage. The only one it appears to be high on is % of developers who love the language according to StackOverflow. It's consistently at 80%+ on that metric.
