Problem

Rust is a programming language that is being funded by major big-tech companies such as Google, Microsoft and Mozilla, (CorpoSlop, as they say.) which means it is under their control, meaning at any time things could change, not only that, Rust is less compatible than C, meaning users (such as those running BSD, plan9, etc) may be unable to run it. Also, Rust has a reputation for being an entry for bad programmers and AI programming (which your users will hate), being "memory safe", you trade performance, reliability and user trust for real-time automatic memory management, whereas managing memory by yourself is almost always more performant and safer. C is a much safer, faster, and more trustworthy alternative to Rust, and, to drop the extremely professional writing, me, my friends and other users like us would probably be much more receptive to moving to Fluxer. (I think I'd still use it even with Rust, but C would be better, :3) I believe many people (including me and my friends) would also be happy to help with writing C code too. :3

Proposed solution

C replacements for Rust components :3

Notes (optional)

Even if it's a long range goal, it'd be highly appreciated by many, in my opinion :3
