Would you rather have a gc or unsafe?

In just about every language I seen people use .clone rather than deal with problems so I suspect a lot of cases a GC can be just fine or faster. Although I'm comfortable with memory management and rather use C or C++ if I'm writing fast code

Like in case where you can't use Rust? (ie.: existing codebase). Sure that is what Fil-C is good for. Point is that Fil-C does not solve the problem Rust does. It is more like band-aid. (Maybe my comment was misunderstood because of typo: sell/well)

Also I think there is huge difference between GC and fact that some people use .clone() somewhere.

    Your reply is so ridiculous. I don't think I ever seen a single rust codebase that didn't use unsafe in it or any of it dependencies. People use a lot of clone, it's not just "some" people. Even if we ignore all the webdev writing rust
