Mostly old guard devs, that don't want to bother learning Rust.

Do not know why the Meme shows languages like Go, Java and Python. They are memory safe due to GC.

Oh believe me I know all about Java's shitty garbage collection. Apps spent so much time collecting garbage, needs to stop to collect more garbage, and it's just a trash truck.

Java is one big dumpster fire.

That is the price you pay for the imense convenience of a GC, either you give up speed, low latency, or low memory footprint. But it still memory safe.

And Java have one of the most sophisticated and performant GCs and VM in the world, wich becomes better if you pick the right GC and tune it well for your aplication.
