    While Rust would probably have been a good choice for implementing a new browser, I don’t think Swift deserves the criticism it’s getting in this thread:

    • Swift was created by the same person who created Rust, and has many of the same nice traits
    • Swift is a modern language that is easy for plenty of developers to pick up; I’d place it in the same family as Rust and Kotlin
    • Swift grants access to a large pool of native iOS/Mac developers
