Rust is quite popular outside of crypto and gaining strength in crypto, even in the Ethereum crowd. Solidity/EVM sorta has a bad reputation with regards to performance and other characteristics even among a lot of Eth devs -- EVM has been battletested for quite a while now though which is its main strength. There are a lot of Ethereum devs working on a Rust implementation of EVM called Foundry (mostly Georgios K. and Paradigm-associated people), Celestia is promoting Fuel VM quite a bit due to it's parallel EVM implementation and Rust usage, and I think there are other rollups working on incorporating Rust. https://github.com/gakonst/foundry
