Are there any major products/services where Rust is being used besides Firefox right now?


There are. Here is a copy of my notes on the subject:

Sorry it's not more organized and detailed.


Another recent big user is 1password, both on the Windows desktop and in the browser with wasm. Great notes!


just a sample: dropbox, cloudflare, canonical, sentry, atlassian, npm, ibm, xero

I know Discord is migrating a lot of their stuff from Go to Rust. Not sure how major you consider Discord.


The Mullvad VPN app is written in Rust.


a very small part of ChromeOS is written in Rust...(mainly in Linux apps support, aka "crostini", https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/mas... for instance as well as other bits).


I'm compiling a list of companies using Rust (https://github.com/omarabid/rust-companies). Probably the next step is to rank companies by how much they are really using Rust and linking products that are using it.


Some: https://www.jonathanturner.org/2018/07/snapshot-of-rust-popu...

As far as "using it in a substantial portion of their product", dunno.


Hardly major, but our[0] entire stack except the frontend is Rust.
