This post will analyze some data covering years of early adoption of Rust at Google. At Google, they have been seeing increased Rust adoption, especially in their consumer applications and platforms. Pulling from the over 1,000 Google developers who have authored and committed Rust code as some part of their work in 2022, they willl address some rumors head-on, both confirming some issues that could be improved and sharing some enlightening discoveries we have made along the way.

Having programmed in C, I got the ownership model quite fast. I just think of it as "is this function going to do an implicit free on return", if not then it should just borrow it. And for C, you already had to think of ownership, just that it was not enforced in any way in the language... if you messed up the ownership to either got a crash or leak.
