My main argument about Rust being a niche language is how few contributors there are to the Lemmy codebase.
Mbin (PHP) has more spread across its contributors:
<li><a href="https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/graphs/contributors">github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/graphs/contributors</a></li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/graphs/contributors">github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/graphs/contributors</a></li>
But maybe Rust isn’t that niche, but the Fediverse apps and projects are niche themselves.
