6 Command Line Tools for Productive Programmers
However, many tools exist which attempt to improve upon cd. autojump, z, and Fasd all track directory usage and give you a single key shortcut for changing to commonly accessed directories. r/commandline has an detailed discussion of these various cd replacements, but the one that has the most momentum is zoxide. zoxide is a rewrite of z in Rust and promises improved speed.

Do you use a file tree explorer?
Explorers: https://github.com/ranger/ranger (Excellent terminal file explorer) you can integrate it with fasd (or z probably) to quickly find frecent files https://github.com/clvv/fasd https://github.com/rafaqz/ranger.vim (vim integration) Or https://github.com/Shougo/defx.nvim (vim file explorer by the infamous shougo)

env::set_current_dir() -- is either not functioning as intended or I'm just messing something up
Indeed, utilities like zoxide which operate primarily as a cd replacement don't attempt to change directories via rust code - they create a shell alias that ultimately invokes a shell builtin to do it.
