Yes. Lots. It moves slowly (read: stable) and reliably.
It doesn't have the toxicity of rust nor the constant changes of JS. It doesn't claim to make the world a better place either. It just does what it does well and leaves it at that.

I don't use it for huge projects. I don't use it regularly. But it's a tool that has helped me build quick solutions to smaller problems and I keep in my belt because it's still more ubiquitous than any alternative.
I think "infighting" or "divisive" are better options, given the past month or two. Hardly a week goes by without rust drama (which has little to do with the actual language and more to do with the community/leadership). The ecosystem is so new that the foundation hasn't been set yet. It's an infant learning to walk, so things will change quickly and drastically.
This is not unique to rust by any means, of course, but just the growing pains of any project.
I don't have any specific gripe with Rust, but I am totally keeping an eye on it from a safe distance and letting time work it all out.
In the meantime, there are nice, predictable tools to build with that don't seem so high stakes.
