    Support for Rust in Linux is gaining a lot of traction. Memory safety without performance hits is massive for kernel development.

    Google and Microsoft are massively invested in Linux and some of its biggest contributors due to the cloud.

    Windows and android are also written in memory unsafe languages so I don’t see how this would help them.
