I think the syntax should be your least concern. I liked it myself from the start, and I've always disliked how Python looks. The question is probably if you want to land a Rust job (they're a bit hard to come by), code something where Rust is the best choice (some libraries are immature, prototyping crappy code that works is a bit tedious) or become a better developer with a nice and fun language. What made you do the initial investment in trying to learn it?
