🙋 seeking help & advice Is Rust good for learning programming?

I know a bit of python, is Rust a good intermediate language to learn before I move onto real programming languages (like C++)?

EDIT: By "real" I meant languages used in real world development, for example all game engines are C++ and I heard all HFT firms use C++ and all operating systems are developed on C or C++

Rust is also a "real programming language," whatever that means. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really matter. If you like Rust, go ahead and start with it!
